What do these research terms mean?
- Preprint
- A manuscript shared before formal peer review and publication. Check whether a later published version is available.
- Dataset
- A collection of data or examples for others to inspect or reuse. It can appear in Library search and topic mapping, but RSRC does not use dataset records as evidence in Research Insights.
- Dissertation or thesis
- Research submitted for an academic degree. This describes its format, not its reliability.
- Journal article
- An article published in a journal. This label alone does not establish peer review, study quality, or how well the findings apply elsewhere.
- Qualitative research
- Examines experiences, meanings, or processes, often through interviews or observations. It can explain how something happens without estimating how common it is.
- Quantitative research
- Uses numerical measurements to describe patterns or test relationships. A relationship between two measurements does not by itself show that one causes the other.
- Systematic review
- Uses a planned, documented method to find and assess research addressing a question. Its conclusions still depend on the included studies and what the search covered.
- Meta-analysis
- Statistically combines results from multiple studies. Combining studies does not remove weaknesses in their design or make unlike populations interchangeable.
- Not classified
- This record has no recognized label in this filter. It does not mean the publication used no method, or that no research exists.
Definitions draw on DataCite resource types; Cochrane review methods; NLM: association and causation. RSRC’s dataset and classification rules are explained in our methodology.
