hypotheses to derive more theoretical propositions about the phenomenon. Using rigorous statistical analysis techniques based in quantitative data collection methods‚ traditional research is numerical based and attempts to provide valid and reliable evidence that can be vigorously checked and studied by other researchers in the scientific discipline. In contrast Action Research focuses on a qualitative methodology to provide a form of self-reflective research methodology that focuses on phenomenon

An Introduction to univariate financial time series analysis 1 Introduction: what is a time-series? Time-series is a sequence {x1‚ x2‚ ...‚ xT } or {xt} ‚ t = 1‚ ...‚ T‚ where t is an index denoting the period in time in which x occurs. We shall treat xt as a random variable; hence‚ a time-series is a sequence of random variables ordered in time. Such a sequence is known as a stochastic process. The probability structure of a sequence of random variables is determined by the joint distribution

Forecasting is the process of making statements about events whose actual outcomes (typically) have not yet been observed. A commonplace example might be estimation of some variable of interest at some specified future date. Prediction is a similar‚ but more general term. Both might refer to formal statistical methods employing time series‚ cross-sectional or longitudinal data‚ or alternatively to less formal judgemental methods.
