INTRODUCTION
The relationship between research, theory, and statistics is interdependent and complementary. Research provides the data needed to test theories, and theories help guide the design of research studies. Statistics is used to analyze the data collected in research studies and to test theories. The results of the statistical analysis help to validate or reject theories, which can then be used to guide future research. In this way, research, theory, and statistics work together to advance scientific understanding and knowledge.
