خلاصه	Simulation-assisted confirmatory research integrates computational simulation — most commonly Monte Carlo methods — into a hypothesis-driven, confirmatory study design. Before or alongside empirical data collection, the researcher runs simulated data under specified model assumptions to establish expected parameter distributions, verify statistical power, and anticipate the behavior of the chosen analysis. The empirical findings are then evaluated against those simulation-derived benchmarks, strengthening the evidential value of confirmatory conclusions.	MONTE-CARLO-SIMULATION (Monte Carlo Simulation — Stochastic uncertainty propagation through MCDM model) is a ranking multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) method introduced by Metropolis, N., Ulam, S. in 1949. It turns a decision matrix of alternatives scored on multiple criteria into a structured, reproducible result.
