Which you could thing about it as Saudi Arabia and United State of American. The data could transfer to be wards to help us to find more evidence to support our study theory, and make it more interesting for the reader. For example, we could put Saudi Arabia like number 1 and United States like number 2, and both of those countries helped the poor around the world, by showing numbers we could easily go with numbers to phase our independent and depending

The concept connecting the idea of the theories and actual date collected. The collection must be logical, failed, and completed. And this is not discussed, but is a critical part of research methods. The measurement is difficult, most interesting concept are not directly measure and by the reading and thoughts to every indirectly. For example when you have idea of what you want to measure, but turing to be that it is not accurate (valid, reliable). Other example for the Operationalization that the concept into the variables use the deflation come up with a prices very of measure the concept, you theory talks about.
