Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A pilot study is a small-scale test run of a research project, and it involves surveying a small number of participants. In this case, Anneli plans to survey surgeons about their willingness to report their own eye health problems.

Option A is incorrect because surveying optometrists about their views of surgeons is not related to Anneli's research question. Option B is incorrect because testing the methodology on a different topic and population would not provide useful information for the current study. Option D is incorrect because a pilot study is meant to be focused and narrow, not broad.
