Abstract
Solution-Oriented Research (hereinafter referred simply to Solution Research) is differs from the conventional discipline research in that 1) the former is seeds-push whereas the latter is needs-pull or social issues-driven, 2) the former is disciplinarily closed, the latter is inter-disciplinary, inter-industrial and international, 3) the former is stand-alone and autonomous, the latter is organization-oriented, 4) the latter is not only analytical but integrative at the same time, and 5) the originality is still important relatively, but practicality is required more than anything else for the latter. Therefore, the Solution Research is a project in nature. This paper studies approaches to various aspects unique to the Solution Research, including how a social issue should be pinpointed, citing an on-going Solution Research.
