Explanatory research answers the questions of "why" and "how" something happened. It establishes a cause and effect relationship between two variables. Hence, the research explains. An example might be showing a relationship between the increased presence of police patrols in certain cities versus the reduction of crimes Did increased police presence have an effect on robbery crimes in banks and convenience stores, for example? Predictive research is involved with the forecasting (predicting) of a likelihood of something happening. This research usually begins with, or leading to, finding what will happen, given that some baseline is already known. This research usually involves some form of human behavior decision or condition. For example if we know that teens in intercity schools, aged 13-16, are prone to high dropout rates, predictive research might assess (predict) a relationship between age or gender and not graduating from high school.
Pilot research is a preliminary part of a later study to find out if your research design works Explorative research is a stand alone study and has its own explorative purpose which can lead to other kinds of studies.
Research is classified accdg. to purpose for the seeking of a certain topic in which one aims to have the sense of fulfillment wherein one has the capacity to become successful in what he is doing
Explanatory research aims to explain why something happens, while descriptive research focuses on describing a phenomenon without explaining it.
I am looking for few examples of exploratory research.
Research can be classified into three main categories based on purpose: exploratory research (to explore new topics), descriptive research (to describe characteristics or relationships), and explanatory research (to explain causes and effects). Each type serves a specific purpose in the research process.
Exploratory research is when researcher little idea about topic and not applied previous theories or ideas.
Exploratory Research also known as formulative research that focus on the discovery of ideas and insights as opposed to collecting statistically accurate data.
ADVANTAGES: 1) The purpose of exploratory research is to know the unknown 2) It narrows down the scope of investigation
Exploratory research is that is in explicit in nature. And the result of this research is reliable.

exploratory descriptive
Exploratory research has four defining characteristics. These include business importance, a practical element, combinations of theory, as well as dependable and useful facts.
