In this assignment, you will discuss how your topic within your specialization could be studied using an experimental, quasi-experimental, and nonexperimental approach. You will design three studies using each of the three major research methods we have learned about in this course. The objectives will be to:

• Describe several methods that can be used to gather data for each methodology.
• Develop a plan for gathering data related to your topic and provide a rationale for gathering data in this manner.
• Support the ideas that are communicated with the appropriate academic sources.

The assignment should be formatted as follows:

1. Section 1: Discuss your topic of bullying
2. Section 2: Identify an experimental method, as well as the research question that aligns with that method. Then, present rationale that describes the purpose of the research. Finally, describe how data would be gathered and analyzed using this method.
3. Section 3: Identify a quasi-experimental method, as well as the research question that aligns with that method. Then, present rationale that describes the purpose of the research. Finally, describe how data would be gathered using this method.
4. Section 4: Identify a nonexperimental method, as well as the research question that aligns with that method. Then, present rationale that describes the purpose of the research. Finally, describe how data would be gathered.
5. All sections should be about bullying
