reasoning:
The
research employs a primarily deductive reasoning approach, moving from theory
to hypothesis testing. It begins with established theoretical frameworks and
existing literature on goalkeeper performance development strategies.
Subsequently, empirical data collected through interviews and in-game metrics
will be used to validate or refute these hypotheses, contributing to a more
nuanced understanding of the topic.
