I believe the answer is: an experiment

An experiment refers to a set of a set of procedures that being done in order to test a certain hypothesis that might lead to a scientific discovery. In order to conduct a research, researchers would need to collect a group of subject, and determine things that could be considered as dependent variable and independent variable.
