Research Methodology

The research methodology will utilize a qualitative approach using random sampling of 300 participants from different sections of the target population. The sample size is appropriate for representing the entire population. All 300 participants will be required to fill out questionnaires voluntarily containing a range of questions to provide accurate responses. The questions need to be valid and up-to-date in order to reliably collect the required data and provide consistent results for measuring the outcomes of the study regarding cybercrime and its impact on society.

Research Methodology

The method of research that will be utilized in this study is the qualitative research approach.
Even though the information obtained is expressed, by and large, not in numbers, but in
words, this method allows one to get in-depth, detailed information about the research subject.
This is richer and more information-rich knowledge that subtly describes the phenomena
being studied instead of quantitative values. The research sampling approach utilized in this
research study is random sampling. This is because a random sample is among the most
straightforward data collection method of the entire population.

Participants
Undoubtedly, for high-quality and effective study,, it is necessary to accomplish a number of
research goals and objectives. For instance, three hundred participants will be randomly
chosen from each section of the target population. The specific subgroups in this research
paper are individuals and people representing their respective organizations and agencies.

Sample Size and Potential Attrition


The selected sample size is appropriate and sufficient because it represents the entire
population. The participation will be voluntary, and therefore no subject will be coerced to
participate in the research project without their consent.

Outcome Measures
Typically, all the 300 participants will be required to fill out questionnaire forms that contain a
range of questions. Although face validity is often present, it is neither sufficient nor essential.
Typically, questions to which participants are restrained to give accurate answers are of
particular concern.

Validity
The questions to which participants are required to provide accurate responses are typically
the ones that cause the most worry. This is because such questions provide the basis in which
the response is to be provided. Therefore, the questions should be valid and up-to-date so as to
provide the required information.

Reliability
Typically, regarding measuring the outcome, reliability is depicted by determining whether
the data collection approaches provide consistent results or not. Cybercrime and cyber
terrorism are not new ideas though the perpetrators’ intent varies across the dimension (Jan et
al, 2021).

Research Design: Exploratory Research Design


To acquire insights into the significance and impact of cybercrime on society, this project will
use an experimental research approach to gather data.

Data Collection
Semi-structured interview questions will aid this study for data collection purposes. The
research will rely entirely on the responses of the interviews, and their answers will form the
basis of the required data to aid in making the inference
