Abstract of a Quantitative Research Article
Overview: The term “abstract” is a homophone which can mean one of two scholarly writing activities. One, is the abstract that you will write to introduce your dissertation. The other meaning is a shortened writing assignment whereby you write a condensed summary of an academic journal. For this week, we will focus on writing a scholarly abstract of a quantitative journal. More information about writing an abstract can be found via the web resource “Writing Scholarly Abstracts.” Since the purpose of this abstract is to summarize, there should not be any direct copying and pasting from the original article.
Directions: View the rubric to make sure you understand the expectations of this assignment. Create a 1-2 page (more is fine) single-spaced Analysis of Research abstract published quantitative scholarly article related to your mock dissertation topic/research question from week 1. Additionally, this assignment functions just like assignment 2.1 only it reviews a quantitative article instead of a qualitative one.
Pick any Quantitative research article related to “Using Data Science Techniques To Enhance Data Security”
Brevity and being concise are important as this analysis is intended to be a brief summation of the research.
Each abstract must therefore consist of the following in this order:
1. Bibliographic Citation – use the correctly formatted APA style citation for the work as the title of your abstract, displaying the full citation in bold font.
2. Author Qualifications – name and qualification of each author conducting the research
3. Research Concern – one paragraph summary of the reason for the overall research topic
4. Research Purpose Statement AND Research Questions or Hypotheses – specific focus of the research
5. Precedent Literature – key literature used in proposing the needed research (not the full bibliography or reference list)
6. Research Methodology – description of the population, sample, and data gathering techniques used in the research
7. Instrumentation – description of the tools used to gather data (surveys, tests, interviews, etc.)
8. Findings – summation of what the research discovered and the types of analysis that were used to describe the findings (tables, figures, and statistical measures)

Quantitative Data Collection Instrument
Overview: Using the topic and research question you developed in week 1, you will design a quantitative instrument that could potentially answer your topic/research question if it were to be applied to a quantitative study. Keep in mind, this may take some stretching if you wrote your question leaning quantitatively. The purpose here is not to box you in but to ensure that you have a solid understanding of both methodologies. This assignment functions similar to 3.1 but in a quantitative format. Finally, view the rubric and examples to make sure you understand the expectations of this assignment.
Directions:
You will develop a word document to include:
1. Your research question in the form of a quantitative question (if it was not already).
2. An instrument or protocol (survey, questionaire, archival data, etc) that could be used to answer the quantitative version of your research question.
*Special note for those using archival data, you will describe the process of data retrieval for your archival data.
3. A one paragraph description/justification of how your chosen instrument/protocol is the best choice for answering the quantitative version of your research question. This should include citations from the literature to support justification.

Week1 Research Question:
Using Data Science Techniques To Enhance Data Security in SMBs
Data science is being embedded into cyber security and data security. It is being used to identify the patterns of past attacks and predict the potential risks within the framework of the system. Machine learning is highly used in analyzing large data sets to find the patterns that spot an attack.
Due to the high licensing cost and contracts, many small and medium-scale businesses use open-source tools and applications. This tends to put these organizations in harm’s way. Due to the low volume of data or fewer users in the organization, the management will choose open-source software tools, which sometimes have fewer security protocols and high exposure to data breaches and security threats.
Research Questions:
· What drives SMBs to choose open-source technologies?
· How safe are these open-source data science technologies?
· What measures can be taken to aid SMBs in using open-source data science tools to protect their data better?
I work with a small insurance firm where various open-source applications are used daily. I want to leverage my experience and access to this situation and try finding answers to the above along with my research. I plan to find the reasons behind the management’s decisions and what factors drive technical teams to choose particular open-source technologies. I will research more on their pitfalls and successful implementations.
