I remember being told during my studies that in QR one does not ask "questions" of the data, but rather sets objectives or goals for the research. As far as I can understand, this is guided by the notion that one does not know at the outset of the research what it is he or she is to ask.

Can anyone elaborate on this? Or else refer me to a place where such a distinction is made clear?
