Answer to Question 2

Induction involves using a few specific observations as the basis for forming a general statement about all possible observations. In the scientific method, researchers use inductive reasoning to form a general hypothesis that is based on a small number of initial observations. Deduction involves using a general statement to make predictions about specific examples. In the scientific method, researchers use a general hypothesis to predict what should occur when the make systematic, planned observations in a research study; that is, when specific individuals are observed in a specific situation.
