Data Collection Methods
• In business research, data is collected from
various sources and a variety of methods are
used in its collection.
• Some of these methods are:
– Census or Surveys
– Observation
– Questionnaires and Interviews
– Case Studies
– Experiments

Experimental Method
• The experimental method involves
manipulating one variable to determine if
changes in one variable cause changes in
another variable.
Variables?
• A variable is anything in an experiment that
can change or vary.
• There are 3 kinds of variables:
– Independent Variable
– Dependent variable
– Controlled Variables or Controlled Environment
Characteristics of An Experiment
• Test one variable at a time.
• Must be fair and unbiased.
• Does not allow any out side factor to affect
the final out come
• Is a valid test. (proving a hypothesis)
• Has repeated trials. (minimizing outcome
errors)
Merits of Experimentation
• The biggest advantage of the experimental
method is it's unique ability to isolate causal
factors, since an experiment is highly
controlled.
• This method promises more accuracy in the
study.
• Reliable data can be collected.
• This is more suitable to the problem with
heterogeneous (varied) influencing factors.
Demerits of Experimentation
• The disadvantage is that exactly this control
may distort the validity of the obtained
results, and especially the ecological validity.
• This is very costly method.
• This is suitable to Simple problems with
limited scope.
• This is a time consuming method.
Situation 01
• Students were given the same jigsaw puzzle to
put together and they were timed.
– Independent Variable
• Ages of Students
– Dependent Variable
• Time taken to put the puzzle together
– Controlled variable
• Every one is given the same puzzle
Situation 02
• The temperature of water was measured at
different depths of a pond
– Independent Variable
• Depths of the water
– Dependent Variable
• Temperature
– Controlled variable
• Same pond, Same thermometer
Situation 03
• The taste of a plain tea was tested by using
different levels amounts of sugar.
– Independent Variable
• Level of sugar
– Dependent Variable
• Taste
– Controlled Variable
• Same Cup, Same sugar brand, same tea leaves, same
temperature level of hot water
