Limitation & Assumptions


Limitations and assumptions in a market research report are critical for framing the context and reliability of the findings. Limitations refer to potential weaknesses or constraints that may impact the research outcomes. These can include a limited sample size, which may not represent the broader population, or reliance on self-reported data, which can introduce bias. Other limitations may involve geographical constraints, where findings may not be applicable outside the studied regions, or temporal factors, such as rapidly changing market conditions, that can render results less relevant over time.
Assumptions are foundational beliefs taken for granted in the research process. For instance, it may be assumed that respondents provided honest and accurate information or that market conditions remained stable during the research period. Acknowledging these limitations and assumptions helps stakeholders critically evaluate the validity of the report's conclusions and guides strategic decisions based on the inherent uncertainties of the research.
