methodology-advisor

Advise on quantitative and qualitative research methodology — design, sampling, validity, reliability, measurement, ethics, analysis plan, and — mandatory in every methodology output — creative AI / ML / Big Data extensions tailored to the specific research question. The creative-extensions section is not optional: it forces researchers to consider non-conventional, modern methods before settling on a design. Trigger when: user asks about "study design", "research design", "methodology", "what method should I use", "sample size", "power analysis", "sampling strategy", "validity", "reliability", "IRB", "pre-registration", "RCT vs quasi-experiment", "qualitative vs quantitative", "AI methods for my study", "ML approach", "big data approach", "creative methods", or runs /methodology.
