"Primary
Data collected by the researcher first hand for the use in their own research e.g. an observation or surveys and their results and reports.

Secondary
Data collected by another that can be reapplied to a new person’s work.

Difference
Primary is collected directly by the researcher and secondary is collected by another researcher and used by another individual."

Primary sources relate to data collected by the researcher e.g. observations, interviews

Secondary sources are information collected by someone else, usually published in a book, journal etc
