Answer:

This question is incomplete. Here are the missing options:

  1. descriptive
  2. correlational
  3. experimental
  4. observational

The answer is 2. correlational study.

Explanation:

A correlational study seeks to understand the relationship between two variables. For example, a piece of research called "Smoking cigarettes may result in premature death" is likely based in a correlational study.

It's important to realise correlation is not the same as causation. In other words, finding that two variables are related does NOT mean one is the direct cause of the other.
