Simply put, data quality in field research is a measure of whether your collected data meets your research requirements. Quality field data should not have any errors, should represent respondents accurately, and should be free of any bias.
Primary data collection is the process of gathering data directly from a first-hand source. In other words, it’s data that’s collected by the organization that expects to use it. Methods include surveys, interviews, observation, and focus groups.
