10. Objectivity
The researcher makes deliberate efforts to eliminate
personal preference resisting the temptation to seek
only such data that supports his/her hypothesis.
The emphasis is on testing, rather than proving the
hypothesis.

11. Precision
Precision in scientific research is achieved
through the uses of statistical methods and
techniques. As such, research conclusions
convey the exact meaning to the reader.

12. Design
The researcher has to have a very specified design of carrying
out the investigation. This will imply that any scientific
inquiry will, in general, undergo the following steps:
 defining of the problem,
 statement of the hypothesis,
 collection and analysis of data,
 testing and confirmation or rejection of hypothesis, and
 reporting of results.

13. Verifiability
This is an important characteristic of every
research. Research methods and findings
presented to the professional community for
other researchers to analyse, confirm or reject
them.
