Chapter 1: Eclectic Research and Construct Validation

$5.00

Chapter 1 of Models of Buyer Behavior

Eclectic Research and Construct Validation outlines two competing research strategies, eclectic research and intensive research, utilized by social scientists. Studies on income-sales and price-sales relationships offer real-world examples of these techniques, as well as demonstrate the superiority of eclectic research. The text argues that eclectic research provides more in-depth information at a reasonable cost than intensive research, and would thus be more helpful and cost efficient to social scientists.
