Explaining - answer “why” questions for predicting future trends
Evaluating - judging success or failure

Branches of Empirical Research
Theoretical data research - draws general conclusions about a phenomenon through deductive hypothesis testing
Applied data research - inductive, interpretive model that explores and discovers audience-related issues

Critical Incident and Trailer Call Techniques
Critical incident (CIT) identifies “best practices” and audience requirements on a periodic basis. Focus is on an incident, what led up to it, and how it helped compete an interaction.
Trailer calls obtain immediate feedback on performance of a transaction on a continuous basis using a short list of questions.
