Explanation
Formative research is the exploratory work done before and during the design of a programme, and focus group discussion is one of its standard tools, so Statement I is true. Formative research is not restricted to one paradigm — it uses qualitative tools (FGDs, interviews) as well as quantitative tools (baseline surveys), so Statement II is also true. Hence both statements are true.निर्माणात्मक शोध किसी कार्यक्रम की अभिकल्पना से पहले और उसके दौरान किया जाने वाला अन्वेषणात्मक कार्य है, और फोकस समूह चर्चा उसका एक मानक उपकरण है, अतः कथन I सही है। निर्माणात्मक शोध किसी एक प्रतिमान तक सीमित नहीं है — यह गुणात्मक उपकरणों (FGD, साक्षात्कार) के साथ-साथ मात्रात्मक उपकरणों (आधार-रेखा सर्वेक्षण) का भी प्रयोग करता है, अतः कथन II भी सही है। अतः दोनों कथन सही हैं।More Research Aptitude questions
