Data collection strategies
Quantitative surveys and questionnaires use predominantly closed questions with pre-defined answers to collect standardized data that can be statistically analyzed. Proper research design and question design are essential to ensure the questions accurately measure intended concepts. Effective question types include multiple choice, ratings scales, and demographic questions that ask only one thing simply and clearly while relating to the research topic.
Qualitative methods like interviews and focus groups aim to gather in-depth details on specific topics. Interviews can be unstructured, semi-structured, or structured. Focus groups involve small group discussions to collectively understand circumstances, behaviors, and opinions, potentially providing greater insight due to group dynamics. Ethnographic research extensively observes groups in natural settings over long periods to experience regular

This document discusses various methods of collecting primary and secondary data. It describes schedules and questionnaires as the two main methods used to collect primary data through surveys. Schedules involve enumerators directly interviewing respondents and recording their answers. Questionnaires are formal lists of questions sent to respondents to complete on their own. Both methods have merits like being useful for extensive inquiries but also have challenges like being expensive or having low response rates. The document provides guidance on effectively designing questionnaires, such as using clear, concise questions in a logical order without technical terms.
7) the nature of primary data
This document discusses different types of primary data collection methods used in commercial research. It describes periodic surveys which measure attitudes and behaviors of different samples at regular intervals. Panel surveys measure the same set of respondents over time. Shared surveys are administered by research firms and include questions from multiple clients to share costs. Audits involve inspecting inventories, sales receipts and other marketing data.

Methods of Gathering Data for Research Purpose and Applications Using IJSER A...
Abstract: A good number of scientist or researchers find it very difficult in carrying out their research work
successfully due to lack of good knowledge of data collection method and application. Data is referred to as a
collection of facts, such as values or measurements, observation or even just descriptions of things. Various ways are
used for data collection in research work or designs depending on the research being done by the researcher. This
study focuses on the Acceptance rate of monthly IJSER paper publication (March 2012 Edition-May 2013 Edition).
Simple descriptive analysis was used. The result shows that Quantitative analysis is considered to be objective,
without any human bias attached to it, because it depends on the comparison of numbers according to mathematical
computations. While Analysis of qualitative data is generally accomplished by methods more subjective, dependent on
people’s opinions, knowledge, assumptions, and inferences (and therefore biases), than that of quantitative data.

Electronic commerce
Electronic commerce involves performing commercial operations electronically through the use of information technology. This includes contact between buyers and sellers as well as the entire buying and selling process. E-commerce encompasses diverse online activities such as electronic fund transfers, online share trading, and commercial auctions. There are different models of e-commerce including business-to-business, business-to-consumer, business-to-government, and consumer-to-administration. E-commerce allows for speedy electronic transactions and information exchange between businesses and organizations.
Decision making
Decision making is a core component of management that involves identifying problems, generating alternative solutions, choosing an alternative, and implementing it. There are different types of decisions - programmed decisions which are routine, unprogrammed decisions which are non-routine, and semi-structured decisions. The decision making process consists of four phases - intelligence gathering to identify problems, design of alternative solutions, choice of the best alternative, and implementation of the chosen alternative. Managers use a variety of tools and techniques during each phase of the process to effectively solve problems and achieve organizational objectives.
Database
Data exists in unorganized files but can be organized into a database using a database management system (DBMS). Traditional file management involves storing data in files that can be manually accessed and updated, but this leads to problems like data redundancy, lack of flexibility, and security issues. A DBMS centralizes data, allows efficient management and sharing of data, and provides access to stored data through application programs to reduce these problems.
Business Process Re-engineering
An information system is a sociotechnical system that considers both technical and social elements. To effectively implement new information technology, organizations must redesign processes, structure, and culture. This involves enterprise resource planning to integrate core processes; business process reengineering to radically redesign processes; structural changes; and shifting organizational culture. Effective ERP implementation requires focusing on goals, top management commitment, organizational involvement, quality data, training, and change management.
