Key Concepts

Data Collection Methods

Data collection methods refer to the techniques employed to gather information from respondents, such as oral interviews or written questionnaires. Each method has its strengths and limitations, and the choice should align with the research objectives and the characteristics of the target population.

Survey Research

Survey research involves systematic data collection from a sample of individuals to gather information about opinions, behaviors, or characteristics. It is a foundational method in social science and market research, and understanding how surveys are designed and implemented is key to evaluating their effectiveness.

Hypothesis Formulation

A hypothesis is a testable prediction or assumption about the relationship between variables. In the context of surveys, the hypothesis guides the structure and focus of the survey, aiming to validate or refute the assumed relationships through collected data.
