Question 15
Your Answer:
Identify and explain the methodological issues and ethical issues
that researchers confront when using secondary data.
There are a number of methodological issues that researchers face when
using secondary data. One issue is that the researcher must ensure that
the data they are using is reliable and accurate. Cole and Trinh (2017)
illustrate this point when they mention that, "In secondary datasets, a key
question that must be answered prior to embarking on any scientic
endeavors is how well the dataset in question captures the events or
variables in question."
The researcher must also verify that they are using the correct data for
their research question. Smith (2011) states the same in her article when
she points out, "In addition, they also provide a sound reection on the
methodologicalissuessurrounding the use of secondary data and draw
careful attention to the need for researchers to be sensitive to the content
of large questionnaire surveys and their match with research questions."
The data may be from a different population than the one the researcher
is studying, which could lead to inaccurate results.
The researcher should be cognizant of the ethical issues that can arise
when using secondary data. Researchers should ascertain that they are
not violating the privacy of the individuals who are included in the data.
Violation of any copyright laws when using the data is another issue that
should not be overlooked when conducting research.
