The second layer of the research onion is research approach. This includes deductive and inductive method. Remember, the first layer might have an impact on your decisions that you make on the research approach level. Hence it is a must for you to figure out the aim of your study.

The research approach layer includes inductive and deductive methods. In this layer, you have to choose any one among these approaches depending on the needs of the study.

How to determine which approach is suitable?


By Krupa Answered 5 years ago

The inductive method lets you form a new theory based on the data collected, whereas the deductive method ensures that the data collected aligns with the already existing theories. Refer https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.5772/60429 to know more about the layers of the research onion.
