OBJECTIVES OF RESEARCH:
The purpose of research is to discover answers to questions through the application of scientific procedures. The main aim of research is to find out the truth which is hidden and which has not been discovered as yet. Though each research study has its own specific purpose, we may think of research objectives as falling into a number of following broad groupings:
1. To gain familiarity with a phenomenon or to achieve new insights into it (studies with this object in view are termed as exploratory or formulative research studies);
2. To portray accurately the characteristics of a particular individual, situation or a group (studies with this object in view are known as descriptive research studies);
3. To determine the frequency with which something occurs or with which it is associated with something else (studies with this object in view are known as diagnostic research studies);
4. To test a hypothesis of a causal relationship between variables (such studies are known as hypothesis-testing research studies).

personalities and groups (Fiske, 2018). These challenges present themselves in partly mental and
partly material forms. Still, they require similar efforts in their responses and handling if humans'
optimal well-being is to be achieved. This research focuses on the psychological aspect of
responding to social challenges with an emphasis on its efficiency, success and failures.
However, to apprehend the different mannerisms of psychological response to societal
challenges, we must appreciate the range of challenges that possibly face individuals or groups in
a society. Some of the comm...
