C ASE S TUDIES Rather than using samples and following a rigid protocol to examine limited number of variables, case study methods involve an in-depth, longitudinal examination of a single instance or event: a case. They provide a systematic way of looking at events, collecting data, analyzing information, and reporting the results.

Case studies lend themselves to both generating and testing hypotheses [1].data informationhypotheses [1] Found at:
