Thus the
researcher should take into consideration such factors in his
interpretation. For example if a comparison has been made between
the traditional method of teaching and any modern method of teaching
in respect of effectiveness of teaching, the interpretation that successful
attainment is the result of method of teaching only is complete denial of
the role of general mental ability, high achievement motivation and
better study habits etc.
(ii) Not to ignore those factors which have not been selected for study:
In social / behavioral researches, the subjects are generally so large that
the researcher collects the data from a selected group only. The
researcher should remember that some factors which have not been
included in selective group are equally important in their impact upon
findings. For example if the researcher collects data from a particular
school in a particular area and then he concludes about all the
schools/colleges.
