Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The majority of psychologists emphasize empirical research, meaning they base their conclusions on observation, experimentation, and data analysis rather than speculation or theory. While Zorica and Pat study different topics, they are still likely to use empirical research methods in their respective fields.
