Rely on verbal agreements and document formal permission steps taken.

Ignore ethical guidelines as long as the research is deemed valuable to the scholarly community.

Obtain informed consent from all participants to ensure transparency and privacy protection.

Exclude sensitive topics from interviews to avoid complications altogether.

To replicate others' research methods exactly.

To focus solely on grammar and spelling errors.

To improve and refine one's research skills.

To critique and evaluate peers' writing styles only.

To exclude outlier cases from secondary sources streamline convergence toward expected trends maintain cohesion narrative.

To reconsider underlying theoretical assumptions informing expectations by closely scrutinizing alignment between theory, literature, and empirical observations.

To confirm accuracy secondary source information through cross-verification additional external resources before making any conclusions.

To prioritize refinement their investigative instruments assuming flaws therein led observational inconsistencies.

Conducting focus groups to understand peer influence without tracking actual consumption or performance outcomes quantitatively.

Measuring caloric intake through food diaries while disregarding athletes' personal experiences and cultural influences.

Observing mealtime behaviors of athletes without collecting numerical data related to their physical health or performance metrics.

Quantitative nutritional intake logs combined with qualitative interviews about food preference motivations create a holistic picture.

Limiting participant selection exclusively from culturally homogeneous populations to simplify interpretations.

Using only theories developed within their own country as a basis for structuring their research approach.

Incorporating various cultural perspectives into their research design and analysis process.

Focusing solely on biostatistical data that do not require consideration of sociocultural factors at all times during analysis.

Identifying a clear research question or problem.

Conducting the experiment or study.

Presenting findings to an audience.

Analyzing data collected from sources.

Translating surveys is unnecessary since most educated individuals have proficiency in English as an international language.

It violates ethical standards by introducing potential biases from mistranslations or idiomatic expressions.

Translation increases complexity without significantly enhancing the quality or reliability of collected data.

To ensure accurate responses by allowing participants to express themselves fully in their native language.

Equal amounts of qualitative and quantitative data gathered independently from each other.

Sequential gathering first all quantitative then all qualitative data regardless of their relevance or connection.

Clear rationale explaining how both methods complement each other to address the research question robustly.

Use of advanced statistical analysis tools for both types of data without justification tied to research aims.
