its primary data. the data is still being collected for the researchers own experiment. secondary is when it was collected for someone else's

am I being too optimistic that they might be nice because I wrote it and then crossed it out

It does say on the front ‘cross any work you don’t want to be marked’
Maybe if you get a lovely examiner they might

True I emphasised on how age is fixed within the participants though

Yeah but the ages were changed/manipulated to see the effect on play preferences

They wernt changed. They’re naturally occurring variables therefore quasi imo

yeah people need to do one quick google search age is quasi
From tutor2u: Quasi-experiments contain a naturally occurring IV. However, in a quasi-experiment the naturally occurring IV is a difference between people that already exists (i.e. gender, age). The researcher examines the effect of this variable on the dependent variable (DV).

but the researcher would have to get it firsthand themselves, there was a similar q to this in another paper where interviews were taken of prisoners and was secondary, idk i guess i thought it'd be the same for this one
What did everyone get for the type of data collected (the primary or secondary data collected)
