Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Secondary data is information that has already been collected by someone else and is readily available, such as government statistics or industry reports. It can typically be obtained more quickly and at a lower cost than primary data (which is collected specifically for the research study) or experimental/observational research (which requires gathering new data through controlled methods). Survey research involves collecting new data through questionnaires, interviews, or focus groups, and can be more time-consuming and expensive than using existing secondary data.
