Looking critically at data


1.Has the right factor been measured & have the correct questions been asked?
2.How were data gathered, were the methods reliable & was the right apparatus used?
3.Do those collecting the results have a vested interest in the outcome of the research? i.e. researcher bias
4.Has the study been repeated, with the same results & conclusions, by other people?
5.Are there still unanswered questions?
