Guidance on developing research


EIPPEE seeks to encourage and assist the development of new methodologically rigorous research on research use, particularly research on brokerage activities.  Whether a small-scale or major research project, there are a number of general principles and issues to consider when thinking about and planning the research in this area.  Follow the below links to find out more.

  • Research question(s): The driver for all research is the question(s) being asked.  Questions need to be carefully focused to produce useful results. Devising the right ones can often be a challenge.  
  • Methodological considerations: This section describes how the choice of appropriate methods can enhance prospects for obtaining meaningful results.
  • Practical considerations: The research plan should also identify and consider research constraints such as limited resources, time, and the practicality of the overall research design.
