Hmm, I'm with you there. I think M, N, and K are definitely secondary research - you're not gathering the data yourself, you're just using information that's already been collected by others.

Okay, so we've got A, B, C, D, E, G, J, O, and P as potential primary research methods. But what about the rest - I'm not so sure about M, N, and K. Those seem more like secondary sources to me.

Haha, yeah, good point! Although I can just imagine someone trying to conduct a 'primary research' census on their own - that would be quite a feat! *chuckles*

Hey guys, don't forget about O and P - censuses and public records are also primary research sources, right? I mean, you're gathering data directly from the government, so that counts.

I agree with you, A, B, C, and D are clearly primary research methods. But I think E, G, and J could also be considered primary research if you're gathering information directly from industry associations, trade magazines, or informal contacts. What do you all think?

Hmm, this is an interesting question. Primary research is all about gathering data directly from the source, so I think A, B, C, and D would definitely be types of primary research. But I'm not sure about some of the other options like E, F, and G - those seem more like secondary research sources to me.
