Question

question 7
research that is undertaken primarily because the researcher is interested in a research topic is called ______.
general research
pure research
applied research
clinical research

Explanation:

Pure research (also known as basic research) is conducted mainly out of the researcher’s intellectual curiosity or interest in a topic, with no immediate practical application in mind. General research is not a standard term for this concept. Applied research focuses on solving practical problems, and clinical research is specific to clinical settings (like medical trials), so they don’t match the description of research done for the researcher’s interest.

Answer:

B. pure research
