Explanation:

Inductive research, inductive method, inductive reasoning or simply induction, is a type of research or argument used in various areas of knowledge. This method is intended to reach a conclusion. As such, it is widely used in the sciences in which it starts from true premises to arrive at conclusions that may or may not be true. In this sense, the induction adds new information to the assumptions that were previously given.
