Researchers--Am I doing this right? 10 points for the best advice. Thank you?

1.) Identify research problems





We believe leadership communication play significant role in organizational


success. Leaders who have effective communication bring positive outcomes to organization. On the other hand, Leaders who have poor communication skills bring various negative outcomes to an organization.





2.) Establish research goals





Our goals is to find out how leadership communication impact employee


performances.





3.) Decide research strategies





In this research study, we decide to use qualitative research as our research


strategy. Our focus is to understand the behavior and relationship between bosses and employees in the organization. Our goal is to construct a concrete explanation of the actors鈥?behavior.





4.) Prepare research plans





We want to find out how leadership communication impact employee


performances. Here is our rough plan. First, we identify our research problems and establish our research objectives. Second, we decide research questions and hypotheses. Third, we gather data and information. Fourth, we analyze data. Fifth, we interpret and test the result (decide to accept or reject the hypothesis). Finally, we present our finding.





5.) Conduct literature review





We collect our information from various sources. Our primary sources are


organization websites, memoranda, employee evaluations. Our secondary sources are books, journals, articles, newspapers.





6.) Gather and Collect data





We conduct phone interview and survey from 50 employees in the organization.


Then, we put our data in aggregate formats.





7.) Analyze and Interpret data





We analyze and interpret the data. We also test our hypotheses. We decided to


accept our hypotheses.





8.) Prepare and present data





We found that leadership communication does impact employee performances.


Effective leadership communication increase productivity, decrease absenteeism, turnover, and deviant behavior in the organization. On the other hand, poor leadership communication decrease productivity, increase absenteeism, turnover, and deviant behavior in the organization.Researchers--Am I doing this right? 10 points for the best advice.

Looks good, just a few questions/suggestions. Numbered items correspond with your numbers.





5. What did you find in your literature review? Summarize the findings using APA format.





6. How did you going to measure ';effective communication'; - what were the criteria you used to assess the communicator? Did you use a standard interview format? If so, you may want to report that here.





7. I know you used qualitative data but how do you plan to measure if there are any relationships between communication and other factors? How did you analyze? Did you use statistics- Pearson r? anova? Multiple regression?





8. How did you come to this- what are the correlations? Was anything statistically significant?Researchers--Am I doing this right? 10 points for the best advice. Thank you?
I wish you wouldn't dangle ';ten points'; oh ';ten points'; in front of us like we're some kind of donkeys following a carrot - think for a moment how condescending that really is - ten points if you figure it out.
There's several things to consider. Most importantly, is this just a phone interview/survey for 50 employees or is it an actual experiment (employees may not be the best subject, unless your running a large scale experiment in which the employers don't mind any affects). Are you testing that hypothesis? If so, what is IV (what your manipulating) and DV (what your measuring)? These become important, especially how they are done. Also what is your control? You could ask a bunch of employees and compare it to the literature review but how many confounds may appear. There many things to consider, my best advice is to review it several times and speak to some you can sit with and hatch it out (TA, Professor, etc.).





I hope that helps.
