Craft Beer Subscription Boxes A Tasting Tour of American Breweries

A quantitative approach implies the employment of scientific empiricist methods intended to generate objective, pure facts. Any study calls for rigorous review of the method of data collecting to be applied. Number of techniques used intomonomethod, the use of one qualitative or quantitative data collecting technique; the multi-method, which incorporates more than one qualitative or quantitative technique; and finally mixed-method, which

incorporates more than one qualitative or quantitative technique (Al-Ababneh, 2020; M. Saunders et al., 2009). The selected research method shapes the methods of data collecting. Using a survey technique suits a positivist approach and is related with a logical approach. A survey method helps the researcher to gather quantitative data and conduct aquantitudinal

analysis (Saunders et al., 2009) using descriptive and inferential statistics. Surveys can so be analytical, descriptive, or a combination of both. While descriptive surveys aim to detect the frequency of particular problems among participants, analytical surveys try to identify the relationships between various factors. Moreover influencing data gathering strategy is the

Duration of the research Usually using

surveys (Saunders et al., 2009), this "snapshot" is considered as cross-sectional and is conducted to address a subject or solve a problem at a specific moment in time. Data collection methods could also be categorized as either primary or secondary depending on the source of the data. Primary data, for instance, is obtained directly from the source that

is, by means of surveys, questionnaires, interviews, or observations conducted particularly for the present study. Conversely, secondary data that is, information already acquired by some one else for another use such as government reports, published studies, or statistics databases. This study applied a main mono strategy with one quantitative data collecting

instrument. Moreover, the systematic data collecting from many participants inside the limited study period has been arranged using a cross-sectional anasurvey method. The data collection approach of this study is a questionnaire. Designed to collect self-reported data, a questionnaire provides respondents a series of questions or statements from which they may

Either by writing out their responses or picking

from pre-existing options (Brown, 2001). It is a helpful tool for looking at numerous facets including beliefs, feelings, thoughts, and opinions from a great number of respondents (Horvat, 2011). One test hypotheses, investigates general traits of a population, and compares opinions of many groups by means of organized clusters of questions. Highly

appropriate for this study on craft beer brand choice, a questionnaire is a quick, easy tool for compiling respondent opinions. Moreover, letting the data of several respondents be gathered helps to create a more complete sample size, so enabling more generalizable results. The questionnaire for this research was developed using Google forms, so allowing one to create

online surveys. Data from like studies on craft beer taste used to design the questionnaire. The thesis work supervisor examines the questionnaire. For easy access of the respondents in April 2023, the questionnaire was sent among many WhatsApp and Facebook groups for this research. Notes arrived once a month. At the end, eleventh hundred people completed

in Swedish. The questionnaire (included in Appendix 1) was constructed for this study using a best-worst scaling approach. Measuring preferences over numerous variables requires the best-worst scaling, commonly referred to as maximum-difference scaling (Mühlbacher et al., 2016). It looks at choices for a range of qualities, their degrees, or alternatives. This stated-

preference technique reflects the possibility of respondents evaluating the best and worst of at least three items in a choice-set. First proposed in the early 1990s, the best-worst scaling technique evolved under the random utility theory. In recent years, best- worst scaling has evolved into a favored theory-driven approach for ranking products or features in numerous

areas including consumer behavior studies, food preferences, and market research (Lerro et al., 2020). Comparing many objects lets the best-worst scaling technique provide a rigorous and flexible approach to generate preferences. The advantages of this method attract modern interest in it. First, it assumes that, given a limited range of possibilities, survey respondents

may rapidly choose the most and least desired alternatives often known as the best and worst options The given choices show the ones with the best and lowest degrees of applicability. This method guarantees scalar equality in comparative studies conducted globally free from any prejudices that could influence the rating scales used (Lerro et al., 2020). The decisions the respondents make are guided by an underlying latent scale.Using a multinomial logit

model helps one mostly get the values of the features. Still, measuring the herdisparity between the frequency at which an attribute is picked as the most important and the frequency at which it is chosen as the least essential will assist one to achieve an adequate approximation of model results This specific research shows the degree of value consumers give to specific artisanal beerlytica qualities.
