Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Secondary data refers to data that has been collected and processed by someone else previously, and is being reused for a new purpose. Information collected from Internet search engines is a form of secondary data because it has been collected and processed by the search engine company, and is being reused by the person conducting the search for their own purposes. Primary data, on the other hand, refers to data that is collected directly by the researcher for a specific purpose. Binary, low-level, and disposable are not relevant categories for describing this type of data.
