These pre-determined steps in a research study are composed of five (5) phases; the conceptual phase, design, and planning phase, empirical phase, analytical phase, and the dissemination phase. Each of these steps has a substantial function and purpose that toils concurrently hand-in-hand that navigates the researcher towards his/her research endeavor.
