Weegy: The case study can accomplish many of the same goals as other methods. For example, the case study can be exploratory (create new knowledge), constructive (solve some problem), or confirmatory (test a hypothesis with empirical evidence). [ The case study can also use either a primary (the researcher collects the data) or secondary (the researcher uses someone else's data) approach. Finally, a case study can be either qualitative or quantitative in nature. The idea that case study research can only be qualitative is incorrect. ] (More)

Weegy: One of the advantages of this type of research is that it allows the researcher to directly observe the subject in a natural setting. Some other advantages of naturalistic observation: It allows researchers to study things that cannot be [ manipulated in a lab due to ethical concerns. For example, while it would be unethical to study the effects of imprisonment by actually confining subjects, researchers can gather information by using naturalistic observation in real prison settings. It can help support the external validity of research. It is one thing to say that the findings of a lab study will generalize to a larger population, but quite another to actually observe those findings actually occurring in a natural setting. ] (More)

Weegy: why do you think following these 5 steps will help you avoid plagiarism? Explain your thoughts. The consequences of accidental plagiarism are equally daunting and should be avoided at all costs. [ Whether or not you intended to plagiarize, you will still be held responsible. As a member of an intellectual community you are expected to respect the ideas of others in the same way that you would respect any other property that didn't belong to you, and this is true whether you plagiarize on purpose or by accident. The best way to make sure you don't plagiarize due to confusion or carelessness is to 1) understand what you're doing when you write a paper and 2) follow a method that is systematic and careful as you do your research. In other words, if you have a clear sense of what question you're trying to answer and what knowledge you're building on, and if you keep careful, clear notes along the way, it's much easier to use sources effectively and responsibly and, most of all, to write a successful paper. If you have questions about plagiarism at any point in your research or writing process, ask. It's always better to ask questions than it is to wait for an instructor to respond to work that you have turned in for a grade. Once you have turned in your final work, you will be held responsible for misuse of sources. source: ] User: What are possible consequences you may face if you are caught plagiarizing? (More)
