Survey Method (Farida)

This method involves collecting data through interviews and questionnaires, using both forced choice and open-ended questions. It is a non-experimental, self-report approach often used in fields like sociology, biology, geology, and psychology to gather information on various topics, such as drug use among college students, dietary preferences of birds, comparisons of modern and historical earthquakes, and sexual problems in couples.
