-Background
-SOP
-Purpose main goal
-Significance
-Scope and Delimitation
-Definition of term
Weaknesses
- requires a large number of respondents.
- It is costly
- Respondents are taken as a group, not as individuals.
- Critical issues need opinion, and not just numerical ratings.
- Monitoring of data gathering is difficult.
does not involve manipulation of variables to yield results.
