6. Type of research.

Types of scientific research:

Fundamental research undertaken primarily to produce new knowledge regardless of application prospects.
Applied research, mainly aimed at applying new knowledge to achieve practical goals and solve specific problems.
Monodisciplinarity research is conducted within the framework of a separate science.
Interdisciplinary research requires the participation of specialists from various fields and is conducted at the junction of several scientific disciplines.
A comprehensive research is conducted using a system of methods and techniques through which scientists strive to cover the maximum (or optimal) possible number of significant parameters of the studied reality.
A single-factor or analytical research is aimed at identifying one, the most significant, in the researcher’s opinion, aspect of reality.
Exploratory research aimed at determining the prospects of working on the topic, finding ways to solve scientific problems.
Critical research is conducted in order to refute an existing theory, model, hypothesis, law, etc., or to test which of the two alternative hypotheses predicts reality more accurately. Critical research is conducted in those areas where a rich theoretical and empirical stock of knowledge has been accumulated and proven methods for carrying out the experiment are available.
Clarifying research. This is the most common type of research. Their goal is to establish the boundaries within which theory predicts facts and empirical patterns. Usually, compared with the initial experimental sample, the conditions of the study, the object, and the methodology change. This registers which area of reality is covered by the previously obtained theoretical knowledge.
Reproducing research. Its purpose is to accurately repeat the experiment of its predecessors to determine the reliability, reliability and objectivity of the results obtained. The results of any study should be repeated in the course of a similar experiment conducted by another researcher with appropriate competence. Therefore, after the discovery of a new effect, a pattern, the creation of a new technique, etc., an avalanche of reproducing studies arises designed to verify the results of the discoverers.
Development is a scientific research that implements the results of specific fundamental and applied research into practice.

1. The requested amount of financing (in accordance with the deadlines of the project, in thousands of tenge).
