Guidance from the IB

"When choosing sources, students must consider the setting of the scientific context for the research and the method´s design if applicable. With this in mind, attention should be paid to the methods to be used for data analysis, the interpretation of data, the conclusion (that should respond to the research question) and evaluation of the method and data used. It is also important that students explain the type of sampling used to extract the data."
