• Review relevant literature to justify your hypothesis.

• Allow someone to replicate your study by providing precise details.

• Apply statistics to test your hypothesis.

• Explore theoretical explanations.

• Evaluate research objectively and methodically.

• Communicate concisely and precisely.
