For instance, when one wants to test readers' reaction to a policy, <a href="http://www.theseoco.com.au/seo-services/" rel="nofollow">seo services australia</a> will promote it and gather data on different forums and commenting platforms, thus getting a general idea of how the readers were influenced.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03314073094615324319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6335146197342151188.post-50179632652306415632012-08-03T23:46:55.491+01:002012-08-03T23:46:55.491+01:00Dwayne, it's not the result that is pathbreaki...Dwayne, it's not the result that is pathbreaking, but the fact that the authors made a credible attempt to answer the question in the first place.... have you seen other studies like it in the development communication field? bestLawrence Haddadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17265061444076801962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6335146197342151188.post-16193830283244535272012-08-03T21:05:31.139+01:002012-08-03T21:05:31.139+01:00Hi Lawrence - brave of you to even venture into su...Hi Lawrence - brave of you to even venture into such a topic!

The outcomes were what they were... no one gets into research knowing that it will come up with definite answers. Its okay if a study only comes up with the revelation that further research is needed. But calling it path-breaking is a choice I do not understand the basis of.<br /><br />thanks, DwayneDwayne Jacobsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6335146197342151188.post-43916341769449176972012-08-02T20:15:43.518+01:002012-08-02T20:15:43.518+01:00Dwayne, ouch...
