Explanation / Answer

22. The correct answer is E.The third option hypothesis and data collection is only a means to the end and not the end itself.The first two choices clearly reflect the goal of study of any discipline of science and yht objective of psychology in particular.Application and control.

23.Option C is correct.It succinctly outlines the start and end of any social sciences study in general and psychology in particular.

24.Option B is correct.Why? Correlation doesn't imply causation.Correlation is a consistent, patterned effect of one behaviour over other.So this has more to do with observations of two variables.
