Answer 1

Research: well, it is an in-depth and detailed study and careful study of something using some tools to find out more information about it.

Practice means doing the action rather than ideas or thought, where practical is done, not just assuming anything theoretically.

Policy implications: The implication is an unspoken inference about what might happen. All policies have implications - somethings that will or might happen when a policy input in place. Ideally, these are studied before the policy is there in place, but often things happen that were not there.

In the case of grandparents, mental health affects their physical health. The above terms are as follow: if we talk about research then:

Research:

1. Questions will be there including factors affecting mental health and the reason for taking the mental stress

2. The questionnaire will be there by respondents, including older adults who are aged and might be going through any stress.

3. Tools and parameters will be there while researching which research objectives are too young to keep in mind while doing research.

4. Sources of data collection are to be in consideration

Practice: respondents and researchers need to be in practice while researching and collecting data from other sources it means they should be well aware of using techniques to be used effectively

Policy implications: need to keep in mind the predictable things and be ready with various measures to make the report more effective and useful.
