What is Causal-Comparative Research?

What is Causal-Comparative Research?

Answers


Maurice
This kind of research attempts to identify the relationships between variables. It determines the reason or cause for the current status of the phenomenon under study.
It is often used in place of the experimental design because many cause-and –effect relationships that we wish to study do not permit experimental manipulation.
For example, a researcher may observe that boys are more prone to drug addiction than girls and set out to identify the major factors which have led to this difference.
