The goal of a formal study is to :

  • A.Discover future research tasks
  • B.Expand understanding of a topic
  • C.Test hypothesis
  • D.Develop hypothesis

Answer: C

The goal of a formal study is to test hypothesis.

In the research design classification of Cooper and Schindler, an exploratory study is loosely structured and aims to discover future research tasks and develop hypotheses. A formal study starts where exploration ends: it has a precise procedure and data source, and its goal is to test the hypotheses or answer the research questions.

Discovering future research tasks, expanding understanding of a topic and developing hypotheses are the aims of exploratory study, so they describe the opposite design.
