  1. What factors must a researcher consider in selecting an existing instrument for use in a study?
  2. How does a researcher locate an existing instrument?

Part Two: Search and locate an existing instrument that will be used to address your research question. Post the title of the instrument selected and the level of measurement on the tool.
