Research, as well as scientific research, of security phenomena is a process
that includes various activities in order to gain certain knowledge about a
phenomenon, behavior or action, which has a security character. We have various
types of research, as well as methods that are used in the process of scientific
research of security phenomena. One of those methods is the test method, which
belongs to the group of methods that deal with collecting, that is, obtaining data,
both in theoretical and empirical scientific research, or in combined theoreticalempirical research. The data is obtained directly and in verbal contact between the
scientific researcher and the subject through the research method. It is a classic
method of social science methodology that is also very applicable in the field of
security sciences. The research method uses three basic techniques for its
operationalization in the scientific research process: interview (scientific
conversation), survey, and test. Due to their pervasiveness, systematicity, and
economy, these techniques have found significant application in the investigation of
phenomena of a security nature.
