CJA 345 Module 2 Assignment 2 Research Planning Matrix
A matrix is a tool that can be used as a job aid in any number of positions within the criminal
justice system. In this assignment, you will work with a matrix that will help you map out
different types of research and identify when one or another research design might be useful.
You will be able to use the completed matrix throughout the rest of this course as a quick
reference when formulating a response for other course assignments.
Tasks:
Given below is the Research Planning Matrix.
The matrix lists six different research designs that have been identified by Kraska and Neuman
(2008): survey, evaluation, existing document, experimental, historical, and interview. Each of
the different research designs is defined for you. To complete the matrix, you must find an
example of each type of research design. That is, you must find a journal article that fits into
each category. In the Examples column of your matrix, place a web link or a citation in the APA
format for each article. After you have located the articles, you must identify the data collection
techniques used by each author, the quantitative and qualitative elements of each article, and
the chief characteristics of each article. Please note that the first example, survey research, has
been completed as an example.
Access the Research Planning Matrix and review the topics to be addressed.
