Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Inductive analysis is an approach in which the theory and hypotheses emerge from the data as the researcher analyses the information collected during the research project. This approach is used when previous research or theories do not provide a clear understanding of the phenomenon being studied. It involves refining the research question and developing an understanding of the data through an iterative process of data collection and analysis.
