Answer:

Secondary Analysis

Step-by-step explanation:

Secondary analysis uses existing data, collected for a prior study, in order to research a topic that is distinct from that original work. This new topic can be an alternative perspective on the original work, or it can be a new research question all together.

The answer is; B

In this type of research, the researcher compared between variables from the different spheres and find a correlation. There is no extraneous variable in this type of research. An example, in this case, would be finding a statistical relationship between funding, by the government, towards education in several financial years and the number of enrolled students in public universities.
