Juliana Rogers · Answer 1

The correct response is Option C. The researcher would use a behavior form.

Explanation:

Marketing research has become more complex in recent years and now many companies are looking for deeper insights into how their customers use their products and how they make their decisions to purchase during the shopping experience. To understand how shoppers behave, market researchers will often observe shopper behavior in stores, doing a sort of participant observation or ethnography of how shoppers behave in the store and what products they compare. This can give the market researcher rich data like how long it takes the shopper to make a purchasing decision and how they react to promotional displays, for example.
