Referencing Secondary research

Referencing






The guardian research was from a site called child wise and it contained information about children spending more time on the internet than TV. This article has loads of quantitative data and has some qualitative data. This article contradicts the statistics from Ofcom because the statistics trend changes. This information is valid because it is government ran. Supported by the Harvard Generator, this information by the guardian is valid and trustworthy.

The BBC research talks about children spending more time online and socialising than watching TV programmes. This article is relevant to my research in trying to prove that online activities are outgrowing watching TV. This report contradicts the Ofcom report because it states that TV is more popular than online. This site is valid as well because it is written by a BBC correspondent.


This BARB research is completely irrelevant to my research because it doesn’t relate to any research methods and it doesn’t help with what I’m trying to find out. This research talks about popular TV shows weekly, which I have not asked any survey questions about it. It doesn’t have any bias point of views on it.


The Ofcom report is relevant to my research because it is the main source that I referring to in terms of contradicting information, cross-referencing and relating information to my primary research. This source is valid and trustworthy as it complies research through mainly years.
