C-studies research do NOT ...
a) aim to éxploré or déscribé without statistical tésting and typically usé non-random or purposivé sampling (NR).
b) comparé groups or éxaminé rélationships bétwéén variablés by méans of somé form of statistical hypothésis tésting.
c) aim to éxplain phénoména by méans of a hypothésis.
d) usé random sampling (R) as thé préférréd sampling téchniqué.

ADDITIONAL NOTES QUESTION 1:
B = C-studiés aim to comparé groups or éxaminé rélationships bétwéén variablés by méans of somé form of statistical
hypothésis tésting. = B trué
