Stasis Theory
Fact
Goal: To create a guide or research paper that shows the ups and downs of Self Publishing and Traditional Publishing so that others can see what path to take when they wish to publish their novels. I will use something similar to a scientific experiment to demonstrate and show data on what a novelist should expect from self publishing vs traditional publishing.
Problem: While in the same goal in mind (to publish a novel) the publishing methods are very different in their approach in to getting a novel published. Testing these two methods will be difficult to show solid data that can be used like a scientific paper.

Definition
The goal and problem is interconnected and difficult to address. The first issues arises from how to properly create a scientific experiment with something that is hardly related to scientific testing. The second issue is that even if I do figure out a way to carry out the experiment, I will need to formulate some form of data that can be used to show results. The last issue to create distinct results that will not be mistaken with correlation but undeniable facts.
Quality
The issue with my research project is very, very severe. If I cannot create a scientific experiment that can show data to support my findings, the research project will just be my own personal experiences and findings without hard proof to support my research paper.
Policy
What must be done to address the issues would be that I look upon other scientific experiments that were in similar situations such as my own, where there is no distinct conventional data to support findings. I could also establish something to scale or grade my findings such as a questionnaire, but I do not know if that is enough as evidence.
People who could be involved to help me out would most likely be social scientist or someone with a scientific background that can turn non-mathematic data into form that can be seen as evidence to support my findings.
