Conceptual Framework
39
= self-evident truth which is based upon known fact or phenomenon. it is notusually answered or proven because it is assumed true or correct which are beyond the controlof the researcher .
Assumption

= its focused is to describe problems descriptively and numerically. It utilizes more statistical tests to explain the nature, characteristics, relationship and differences of variables
Quantitative Research Design
52
= describes and interprets WHAT is. It is concerned with conditions or relationship that exist, practices that prevail, beliefs and processes that are going on, effects that are being felt or trends that are developing.
Descriptive
53
= involves collection of information on people, events and other topics of interest to the researcher.
Descriptive-Survey
54

57
Sub-types of Descriptive Research
Descriptive survey descriptive documentary
58
Types of quantitative Research
DESCRIPTIVE CORRELATIONAL EXPERIMENTAL

Population
61
= representative portion of a whole= subset of a populatioN
Sample
62
= applicable only when the population being investigated is homogenous.
Restricted Random
63
= the best random sampling design because no restriction is imposedand every member of the population has an equal chance of inclusion in the sample
Unrestricted Random
64
it divides first the population into two or more strata. For each stratum,the sample items were drawn at random.
Stratified Random
65
= a design which all individual in the population are arranged in a methodicalmanner, i.e. alphabetical or chronological (age, experience) and the name may be selected inthe construction of the sample
Systematic
66
= done in several stage, it can be two-stage, three, four or five stage, etc…,depending on the number of stages of sampling to be used
Multistage
67
= population is group into clusters or small units, for instance, block ordistricts, and are selected by random sampling or systematic sampling.=advantageous when individuals in the districts or blocks belong to the heterogeneous group
Cluster Sampling
68
TYPES OF SCIENTIFIC SAMPLINGS
Restricted Random Unrestricted Random Stratifies Random Systematic Multistage Cluster Sampling
69
= in this sampling there is subjectivity on the on the part of there searcher because not all the individual in a population are given an equal chance of being included in the sampl
Non-Scientific Sampling
70
= based on choosing individuals as sample according to the purposes of theresearcher
Purposive
71
= a design applied to those samples which are take because they are mostvaluable= the researcher simply takes the nearest individual as subjects of the study until the samplereaches the desired size
Incidental
72
= popular in the field of opinion research due to the fact that it is done by merely looking for individuals with requisite characteristics
Quota Sampling
73
Types of non scientific sampling
Purposive Incidental Quota sampling
