Answer:

he did not conduct background research before developing his hypothesis

Explanation:

Scientific Research involves forming a hypothesis and then trying to prove the hypothesis. The hypothesis is formed after observing and studying literature regarding the topic.

Here, the student formed the hypothesis without basing it in logic and reasoning. He has not researched about the clothing habits of older people.

Hence, the problem with his research is not basing his hypothesis in facts.
