Evaluation
Based on the research, it complies with the following aspects of the checklist. The
research question serves as a logical extension of the purpose of the study that is the creation of
awareness regarding cyber-terrorism. Also, it reflects the best question, since an analysis of the
technological levels in Saudi Arabia equips it to handle the cyber threat (Alqahtani, 2014).
Moreover, the research seeks to compares its technological status with other countries, thus
comparison study is the most appropriate mechanism. The research questions follow the
methodology appropriate in the data collection since if inquires about abstract data. Furthermore,
it relates the central question to the qualitative approach because the variables of interests
identified from the title of the study (Alqahtani, 2014). However, it fails to observe the
utilization of non-directional language and does not specify the participants.
Research design
The research uses Grounded Theory Method (GTM) as the qualitative approach to fulfill
the expectations of the study. The method utilizes a combination of systematic and inductive
techniques and comparison study to formulate a theory based on the empirical evidence collected
from the research process (Alqahtani, 2014). The researcher implements the approach through
the selection of the appropriate participants and analysis of the results. Moreover, the alternating
collection and analysis of data promotes the development of a theory based on the research
design. Additionally, it uses purposive sampling in the selection of the participants (Alqahtani,
2014). The method ensures that the respondents provide data that will facilitate the answering of
the research questions.
