Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Planning in advance for organization and presentation of data allows a researcher to determine whether the information being collected is relevant to the research question. Statistically significant data is determined through analysis after the data has been collected. Constitutive and operational definitions may be important for analyzing the data, but they do not relate to the organization and presentation of data. The data may or may not be supportive of current paradigms, but that is not relevant to planning for organization and presentation of data.
