Mastering Data Gathering: From Academic Foundations to Practical Application
In my academic journey at the University of East Sarajevo, I’ve built a strong foundation in psychological research methods—especially in the process of data gathering. This skill became particularly essential while working on my scientific study focused on the construction and validation of a scale for measuring reflective–impulsive cognitive style. Through this process, I learned firsthand the importance of choosing appropriate sampling methods, ensuring ethical data collection, and maintaining data quality.
However, true expertise comes not only from theory, but also from experience. I expanded my skills in data gathering through practical work at EBD International, where I was involved in several research-oriented and data visualization projects. Additionally, by completing specialized online courses in research methodology and data analytics, I deepened my understanding of how structured, reliable, and valid data collection underpins every successful analytical or visualization outcome.
Data gathering is more than a step in the research process—it’s a craft that determines the quality of everything that follows. Whether designing psychological scales or building business dashboards, knowing how to gather the right data in the right way makes all the difference.
