  1. SAFE 602: Research Methods in Safety Sciences • Using Live Classroom • Raising Hands • Yes/No Checks • Typing in Chat Area • Archived chat sessions

  2. Using D2L • Course Syllabus • Due dates • Online quizzes • Course contents • Email • Activities and assignments • Course Projects

  3. Research Basics • The Research Process • A question is posed • Literature is searched • A research method is developed • Data is collected • Data is analyzed • A decision is made

  4. Research Goal • A research goal is a broad statement • An unanswered question • The researcher wishes to examine occupational fatalities due to electrocutions in the construction industry

  5. Problem Statement • The Problem Statement of a research study describes the purpose of the research project. • Example: The purpose of this study is to describe the risk factors for fatalities due to electrocutions in the construction industry. • Sub-problems examine parts of the main Problem Statement • Describe the risk factors for electrocutions involving overhead power lines • Describe the risk factors for electrocutions involving power tools

  6. Research Hypotheses • Research Hypotheses • Educated conjecture applied to the research problem • The researcher wishes to determine if there is a significant relationship between the age of the worker and their involvement in an occupational electrocution • The researcher wishes to determine if there is a significant relationship between the type of job task the victim was engaged in their involvement in an occupational electrocution
