RESEARCH GAPS
Evidence Gap; Knowledge Gap; Practical-Knowledge Gap; Methodological Gap; Empirical Gap; and Theoretical Gap; Population Gap
27
occurs with a provocative exception arises if a new research finding contradicts widely accepted conclusions.
EVIDENCE GAP
28
is a common gap in the prior research.
KNOWLEDGE GAP
29
This kind of gap tends to be a discrepancy that can motivate new research in this direction.
PRACTICAL KNOWLEGE GAP
30
is the type of gap that deals with the conflict that occurs due to the influence of methodology on research results.
METHODOLOGICAL GAP
31
is the type of gap that deals with gaps in the prior research. This conflict deals with the research findings or propositions need to be evaluated or empirically verified.
EMPIRICAL GAP
32
is the type of gap that deals with the gaps in theory with the prior research.
THEOROTICAL GAP
33
is a common gap recognized among researchers. There are always underserved populations that have been under-researched.
POPULATION GAP
