Communication methods, such as surveys and questionnaires, would allow Jason to collect data from a widely dispersed population on their past consumption behavior and intentions for future behavior. Observation and monitoring methods would not be suitable for collecting this type of data, as they would not provide information on past behaviors or intentions for future behaviors. Experimental and causal methods are not applicable in this situation.
