DNone of the above
Correct answer: (A) Applied research — Applying laws during field study to clarify a problem is applied research, so that is the answer.
Explanation
★Applying laws during field study to clarify a problem is applied research, so that is the answer.
★Applied research uses established knowledge and laws to solve a real, practical problem.
★So during the field study it applies those laws to reach clearer ideas about the problem at hand.
★Action research aims to improve one's own immediate practice, a narrower purpose.
★Experimental research manipulates conditions under control rather than applying laws in the field.
★So applying known laws in the field to clarify a problem is applied research.
