Research Methodology Skill

When conducting research, follow this systematic approach:

1. Define the Research Question

  • Clarify exactly what information is needed
  • Identify key terms and concepts
  • Determine the scope (broad overview vs. deep dive)

2. Search Strategy

  • Start with broad searches to understand the landscape
  • Use specific keywords for targeted information
  • Search multiple sources to verify information
  • Note publication dates for recency

3. Evaluate Sources

  • Prefer primary sources when available
  • Check author credentials and publication reputation
  • Cross-reference claims across multiple sources
  • Note any conflicts of interest

4. Synthesize Findings

  • Organize information thematically
  • Identify patterns and trends
  • Note areas of consensus and disagreement
  • Highlight knowledge gaps

5. Present Results

  • Lead with key findings
  • Provide supporting evidence
  • Cite sources appropriately
  • Acknowledge limitations

Best Practices

  • Always verify extraordinary claims
  • Distinguish between facts, opinions, and speculation
  • Update research if new information becomes available
  • Be transparent about uncertainty
