“…All of these definitions provide ideas about a research hypothesis. They can be summarised to mean that a research hypothesis is "the statement created by researchers when they speculate upon the outcome of research or an experiment", or a specific situation in that research study [59]. These definitions describe what a hypothesis can be when applied in any form of research [60][61][62].…”

“…On the one hand, null hypotheses are presented in the form of statements depicting that there is no actual relationship between the variables to be investigated. It usually reads in the form of, "There exists no difference between X and Y...." For instance, "There is no significant difference in the anxiety level of children of high IQ and those of low IQ" [59] (p. 35). On the other hand, alternate hypotheses are usually statements that suggest a possible outcome that a researcher expects (that is, the opposite of a null hypothesis).…”

Qualitative research involves scientific narratives and the analysis and interpretation of textual or numerical data (or both), mostly from conversations and discussions, to uncover meaningful patterns that describe a particular phenomenon. It is important to know other ways of framing and explaining these nuanced scientific narratives so that they can convey scientific knowledge. A qualitative hypothesis can play this role. The testing of hypotheses in qualitative research—which does not strictly mean the same thing as testing of hypotheses in quantitative research—always comes with challenges that provoke concerns. The questions that scholars, especially undergraduate and postgraduate students, have had to deal with are: Is it possible to “test” hypotheses using a qualitative method? If it is possible, how can this be done? This study deconstructs the concept, notion, and use of the hypotheses. It presents the “how-to” aspect of hypothesising (in qualitative research and inquiries) by using creative diagramming within post-positivist research, and also contributes to the literature on visual communication and qualitative research. The study is a guide to early career scholars (including undergraduate and post-graduate students) on how to formulate and “test” hypotheses qualitatively using visual or diagrammatical approaches.

“…These common elements are combined by ISO:2015 through a high-level structure (HLS). This consists of common elements such as top management commitment, documentation, and recording control, notions of policy, goals and target planning, employee training, communication procedures, audits, control over non-compliance with quality, corrective and preventive action, and review management [1,[8][9][10][11][12].…”

“…The standards for quality, occupational safety and health, and the environment differ in their activity procedures while having the same structure and framework [3]. There is also a lack of information on the advantages of integrated systems at the leadership level [9]. The main obstacle in relation to integrated systems is the level of leadership [9].…”

Development of knowledge management in integration management systems in order to increase the organisational performance of construction companies

2019

The previous research on integrated management systems has varied. Most of them used a structural equation model (SEM) or consisted of a literature review. These studies have not yet presented a relationship between integration management systems at the practical level in order to improve organisational performance. These studies have not included knowledge management in their implementation. Research on knowledge management is needed in order to minimise the inefficiency of an organisation. The level of maturity of knowledge management in construction companies is only about 50% (at the practiced level). The biggest obstacle to the realisation of an integrated management system is a lack of knowledge management. Knowledge management is a key standard in integrated management and sustainability reporting. This study aims to identify the most important variables needed in the context of the development of knowledge management and integrated management systems through RII analysis, including developing a job description through RAM RACI R (Responsible), A (Accountable), C (Consult), and I (Inform).
