Primary Research #2

I did research about Primary Research with all different sources that are books, journal and online articles. Actually I have a problem about this topic is Primary Research. What is my problem so far?

can’t find many sources only for ‘Primary Research’

many books and other sources don’t explain or specify about ‘Primary Research’ only

start to researching the sources that are related to the ‘Primary Research’ so there are so much works to be done

definitions of research and the methodologies can be different with all different area e.g.communication research, science research. etc

even a book that is called ‘Dictionary of Mass communication and Media Research’ doesn’t mention about what is ‘Primary Research’ at all

this research can be very easy or very difficult

These are all the problems that I’ve got during the research about my group’s topic is ‘Primary Research’ and I think I can get more senses to resolve these problems as time goes by.
