What are qualities of a good research?

Answer 1

A good researcher will be able to extract relevant information from large amounts of info. Complete research will have a) the core information, or sets of core information, which together answers the question (problem) directly, and b) the contextual information, which determines whether or not the core research is applicable to given circumstances. That is, the research must be relevant!

Good research is that which paints a complete picture, but not so bogged down with detail ast to detract from the overall picture - i.e. the solution to given problem.

The researcher should also be able to convey the research in an accessible format, that is the research must be easy to make use of. This might mean illustrating hundreds and hundres of numbers, for e.g the ages of women working in childcare, into categories of relevance such as the region they live in or their ethnic background, depending on the question being asked.

Answer 2

A good research should be well-defined in scope and objectives, based on a clear methodology, supported by strong evidence and data analysis, and contribute to existing knowledge in the field. Additionally, it should be conducted ethically, transparently, and with consideration for potential biases or limitations.
