Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An interview is conducted when the researcher speaks to the respondent directly, asking questions and recording answers. The other options are different ways of collecting data, but they do not involve direct interaction between the researcher and the respondent. A survey is a questionnaire-based study where respondents answer questions about a particular subject; a web-based survey is the same but conducted online; a kiosk is a physical device that allows participants to complete a survey or questionnaire; content analysis is a research method where the analyst examines the content of communication, such as text or images.
