Causation cannot be determined... You cannot be certain which is the cause and which is the effect, as the correlational data is only supporting the idea that they are both occurring together.
how does experimental research differ importantly from correlational research methods Correlational Research are predictions and are mostly based on statistics. Whereas Experimental Research is based on experiment and explaination.

Correlation Research Method, a statistical measure of a relationship between two or more variables, gives an indication of how one variable may predict another.
There are lots of different approaches to 'Psychological problems'. The question should be 'which research strategy is used with Psychological problems?' as the scientific empirical method is what science is...if you follow my meaning. Psychological problems can be approcahed using descriptive, correlational, true experimental or quasi-experimental research methods.

What are the strengths & weaknesses of motivational research
correlational
It cannot be used to demonstrate cause and effect relationships.
Research is classified based on purpose and by method. A research can be done for the purpose of either developing a theory or making a decision. It can be done by historical or correlational research.
The advantage of the correlational research method is the ability to prove a positive or negative correlation between two subjects . The disadvantage of this is the unclear interpreation of cause and affect. moletsane
