DATA PROCESSING RESEARCH METHODS

Research is a scientific activity to answer the desires of human curiosity and analysis relating to the construction, which is done methodologically, systematically and consistently. Methodological means in accordance with the method or a certain way, systematic is based on a system, whereas the lack of consistent means things that are opposed within a certain framework. Thus research is a tool used by humans to strengthen, nurture and develop the science.
As a scientific activity, then an investigation has begun, when the researchers attempted to solve problems systematically with a particular method, namely the scientific method to find the truth. Is the right step to find strategies to determine the problems in writing papers, because as early researchers conducted a study plan he thinks is the problems examined. But "on paper", the researcher in question begin with the title of the study. This activity was followed with the aim of the research studies that address real issues. The answer to the purpose of this research into the weight of a study. To answer the purpose of the study, researchers carry out research stages are: preparation of the background and purpose of research, theoretical and conceptual framework of the preparation, formulation of research hypotheses (if needed), data collection, further processing of the data and then execute simultaneously and continuously perform data analysis, and ultimately prepare a research report. In preparing the research report, in the end make the conclusion that the answer to the research objectives and make suggestions or recommendations based on the processing of research data.
With regard to the "data processing method of research", in the social sciences in general influenced by two perspectives: positivism and stream flow phenomenology. This indicates that it is basically a data processing can be performed with a quantitative approach and qualitative.
Quantitative approach to data processing, in essence means highlighting the problems and solutions business, which is done with a lot of efforts are based on measurements. In this case the object breaking research into the specific elements that can be quantified in such a way. Then pulled a generalization of the widest possible scope. Quantitative research uses the tools of mathematics and statistics are complicated, sophisticated complex that impressed.
Quantitative approach is to start work by making a variety of tabulation, which is the most simple is a simple tabulation, tabulation of frequencies up to the cross tabulation of the variable that contains links to many (multi-variable). Application of this quantitative approach, which also has the function of limiting the benefits to be gained from the use of such methods include:
1. Efficiently collect, process and analyze research data, especially in the application of survey research planning.
2. By holding the quantification, it is relatively easy to conduct a comparative study and draw generalizations.
3. It is easier to apply the method of induction, of the results of the study.
4. More quantitative methods are applied to test the hypothesis remains, especially in studies that are explanatory.
Qualitative approach, the research procedures which produce descriptive analysis, which is what is stated by the relevant targets of research in writing or orally, and the real behavior. Studied and learned a whole is an object of research.
It is not appropriate to contrast the two approaches mentioned above, both are a couple and complement each other. There is not an absolute for emphasis on one way, it passed away at the ability of researchers and sponsors who want a specific format.
Data processing, influenced by various factors, namely
a. Interest or the interest of research contained in the formulation of goals and issue the scope of the study
b. Format desire sponsor research
c. The ability of researchers including the limitations of time, effort, and cost of research
In the normative legal research, the data processing means basically to hold events systematization of written legal materials. Systematization means, make the classification of materials such written law, to facilitate the work of analysis and construction.
Processing, analysis and construction of normative legal research data:
1. Draw general principles of law
2. Systematic reviewing legislation
3. Research on the extent sinkhronisasi of legislation.
4. Comparative law
5. History of law
Research with the aim to draw general principles of law, positive law can be made to the written and unwritten. The problems that arise from the range in which the principles of law are from, or what things are affecting the legal principles. For example, in criminal law, a principle known explicitly, the principle of no fault, no law or no criminal liability without fault. Included in this category are studies that examine the legal principles in the Act 1 of 1974, using the legal dogmatic method, based on the laws of logic, by performing the following steps :
a. Selecting the articles that contain Siwak law governing a particular matter in accordance with the study subjects.
b. Make systematic of these articles, which produces certain classifications.
c. Menganalisas the articles, using the principles of existing law.
d. To the construction, provided that:
1) Includes all materials under study
2) Consistent
3) Meet the terms of aesthetic
4) Simple in the formulation.
For the systematic review of research data processing legislation, the regulations do is gather in a specific area, or several interrelated areas of focus of the study. Further analysis conducted by means of, the basic notions of the legal system, which includes: a. Legal subjects, b. Rights and obligations, c. Legal events, d. Legal relationship, and e. Legal object.
Sinkhronisasi research data processing stage of legislation, can be done with two starting points sinkhronisasi vertical extent (based on the hierarchy) and horizontal (equivalent regulations that have a functional relationship), is consistent. The principle of law that can be used are:
a. The law does not apply retroactively
b. Laws made by higher authorities, have a higher position
c. Laws that are specifically set aside the laws is umu, if the same author
d. Applicable laws later, canceling the applicable law prior
e. The law can not be contested
f. Act as a means to semakimal may be able to achieve spiritual and material prosperity for the community
g. And so on
As an example of processing of comparative law study, conducted by van Vollenhoven in the filling so-called legal environment, which is the area of ​​customary law. Each region was analyzed for the then customary law identified characteristics, and classify areas of customary law. This method produces 19 traditional legal environment. Here the law of comparative data processing methods mainly used in order to obtain an abstraction or generalization. The usefulness of the application of comparative law, among others, will provide knowledge of the similarities and differences between the various fields of the rule of law and basic pengerti legal system, making it easier to do unification, legal certainty and legal penyederahaan.
Processing of legal history research methods, examines the relationship between the law with other social phenomena, from the point of history. Researchers can explain the development of the legal field under study. The usefulness of this method is the use of the fact hubungannnya law and facts of the past in the present law. The present law, is the result of the development of one aspect of human life pda past and the present law is the legal basis for the future. In the history of an important law is the law of symptoms is unique in terms of the chronological process, as well as the causes of these symptoms.

Processing, analysis and construction of sociological research data or empirical law:
A. Recording the results of the quantitative data collection
2. Analysis and construction of quantitative data (mean value, the mean, the greatest value, correlation, etc.)
Things that need to be considered in the data processing is:
a. variables
b. Measurement scale (Nominal Scale, Ordinal Scale, Interval Scale, Ratio Scale)
c. Type scale (Likert Scale, Guttman Scale, Semantic Differential, Rating Scale)
d. research instruments
e. Validity and Reliability of instruments.

Stages of data processing, in general, are:
• Inspection / Data Validity field
• Encoding
• Importation of data (data entry)
• Data Processing
• The results of data analysis à Data Processing
