I am a European economics student in my 3rd and final year, I have been tasked with formulating my own research question, I submitted my idea to my supervisor initially hoping to establish a causal relationship, however in his response he told me that my findings would be "descriptive, showing conditional correlations".
Should I go through with this idea or try change it if possible ?
Should I be striving to establish a causal relationship in my bachelor thesis in the fist place ?
I am a little lost in terms of what is expected of me and my work at this stage….
Bachelor Thesis guidance : is a descriptive thesis, showing conditional correlations good for my level ? Is establishing a causal relationship too much at my level ?
