She found that this was not the case for all individual's that self-reported crime and she chose to refine her hypotheses and develop a new study. Describe what type of research she could engage in to use her data to develop new theoretical constructs. Then explain how this is representative of the research circle.

She could engage in inductive research to examine her data to find new patterns and potentially new theoretical constructs. This is representative of the research circle because many researchers start with one type of study and then move to the next type of study to refine and solidify their arguments.
