23. How valid is the outcome in the scientific community?
Discussion:
How valid is the outcome in the scientific community?
It‘s not representative, it is applied research (real, „dirty“ data) => showing a trend, leading to assumptions
Sample: different countries (+)
Base for our own discussion, it gives good ideas
Stimulate discussions in scientific events
Have another survey at a later time / end of the project to compare results
What are wie going to do with the outcomes now?
