what does CARP stand for
correlation, association, relationship, prediction
states that a relationship exists between 2 or more variables

relationships in research hypothesis are described as
associative or casual, simple or complex, non directional or directional
states the nature and direction of the relationship between two or more variables (predicts)
directional hypothesis
what is directional hypothesis based on
nursing theories, observed phenomena, clinical experience, and existing clinical and research literature
what are the descriptors of directional hypothesis
increase, decrease, less, more, smaller, greater
states that a relationship exists between two variables bud does not predict the direction or nature of the relationship
non directional hypothesis
what types of studies are non directional hypothesis
exploratory or descriptive studies
what are the descriptors of non directional hypothesis

sections of a study
introduction, methods, results/findings, discussion
production of knowledge that results from analysis of words
qualitative data analysis
what does qualitative data analysis involve
description, data reduction, analysis, and interpretation
when does qualitative data analysis occur
as data is collected

used to either accept of reject this statement
null hypothesis

statistical hypothesis

which error is more serious
type 1 error
when the researcher accepts the null hypothesis when it should have been rejected
type 2 error
what is the result of type 2 error
practice does not change when it should have been changed
what type of relationship do type 1 and type 2 error have
inverse, if one increases then the other decreases
