The goals of scientific enquiry are as follows:
Description тИТ It is very important in a scientific enquiry to describe the behaviour or a phenomenon accurately in order to be able to deal with it.
Prediction тИТ Scientific enquiry aims at the understanding of a particular behaviour in relationship to other behaviours or events. It tries to predict their occurrences under certain conditions with a margin of error.
Explanation тИТ Scientific enquiry is conducted to know the causal factors or determinants of behaviour and the conditions where the behaviour does not occur.
Control тИТ Being able to explain behaviour also leads to the control in behaviour by making changes in its antecedent conditions. The control refers to making a particular behaviour happen, reduce it and enhance it.
Application тИТ Application of a particular behaviour aims at bringing about positive changes in the lives of people by solving their problems in various settings.
