QUESTION 1
a.
Research is a systematic process that involves collecting, analysing and interpreting
information (or “data” as it is termed in research) in order to increase our understanding of
things that we are interested in or concerned about (Leedy & Ormrod, 2010).
Research is important because it helps us gather information in a reliable and valid way,
allowing us to discover new knowledge and understand the truth about different
phenomena. Research is essential in fields such as industrial psychology to provide
evidence-based solutions and insights into workplace behavior and performance.
