Some research questions are best answered under controlled laboratory conditions because it would be impossible to repeatedly encounter or simulate the same conditions consistently in actual negotiations.

a) true

b) false

Answer: True

Explanation: Research studies are diverse in nature and as such conducting a research study involves adopting the best setting, method or environment which would have the least external effect on our analysis. Some research studies may involve studying subjects in their natural habitat or environment, such research studies may include studies on behavioral patterns, reasoning and son on. While some research studies involves adopting a controlled setting whereby the researcher moderates the exposure of participants to certain degree of adjustment. Laboratory experiment are particularly important in the biological and health research whereby exposure levels are controlled and carefully monitored, and administered treatment under certain conditions such as temperature must also be monitored. Laboratory research of this sort may be very difficult to replicate in actual negotiation.
