Module 3 and 4: Qualitative and Quantitative Research Designs Flashcards
it is the overall approach of the study
Research design
What should be considered when deciding which design to use
- field study
- experimental study
- survey study
study that answers the question
“how long should I observe the phenomenon?”
“who are the people that I should interview?”
Field Study
study that answers
“will random assignments be made and what are the variables?”
“What shall be the conditions?”
Experimental Study
study that answers
“how many times will the participant answer the question”
Survey study
study where participants respond to questionnaire
survey study
study where you can control different conditions where the subjects can be examined
Experimental study
study where you can be immersed in a phenomena
Field study
study if you want to know the effectiveness and want to have a definite measures of outcome
Experimental study
study if you want to know the perspective of a significant number of sample in a population
survey study
study if you want to observe people or a phenomenon or situation
descriptive study
this is done to provide a plan of study that permits accurate assessment of cause and effect relationships between 2 variables
Research design
The variable that can be changed
-it is the x or the intervention
Independent Variable
variable that is usually the outcome if the intervention is applied
Dependent Variable
these are the strategies that we apply when doing a study
methods
Qualitative Method is _____ process
inductive
Quantitative method is _____process
deductive
T/F
Inductive process means that we already know a theory and we just have to test it
False
T/F
in inductive process, we do not have a strong basis yet on how a phenomena is explained
True
In Qualitative Method
Time expenditure is ____on the planning and _____ during the analysis
Lighter; heavier
T/F
Quantitative method is more subjective
False
Quali: subjective
Quanti: objective
Research method that depends on the skill and rigor of the researcher
Qualitative
Research method that depends on the device or instrument used
Quantitative
Study method that rely on the participant’s input rather than the structure of the question
Qualitative
The research characteristics where researchers collect data in the field of site where participants experience the issue
Natural setting
the researcher as the key instrument means that
the researchers collect data themselves
T/F
in qualitative study, researcher does not necessarily need to be an active participant in gathering data
False
T/F
qualitative researchers build their patterns, categories and themes in a bottom up approach
True
T/F
in qualitative research the meaning that the researcher brings to the research is the focus.
False
T/F
In quantitative research, initial plan for research may change after researchers begin to collect data
False
It is quali research not quanti
What are the 6 Qualitative Research Designs
-narrative
-phenomenological
-grounded theory
-ethnography
-case study
participative action research
Research design that study the experience of an individual as told to the researcher
narrative
A biography that is written by self
Autobiography
type of narrative research that is written for others
Life story/oral history
research design that explains the meaning of lived experiences for SEVERAL INDIVIDUALS about a concept
-have common experiences of phenomenon (what/how they are experienced)
Phenomenological
phenomenology that reflects on the lived experiences with interpretations by the researcher
Hermeneutical Phenomenology
phenomenology that focuses on describing experiences of participants
Empirical, Transcendental phenomenology
Is Moustakas Phenomenology a Transcendental or Hermeneutical
Is Van Manen’s Phenomenology Transcendental or Hermeneutical
Transcendental
Hermeneutical
A phenomenology that is more straightforward and has a clear direction how the phenomenon is processed step by step
Moustakas
Phenomenology that has freedom in terms of how one interprets a phenomenon
Van Manen’s
Phenomenology that describes the phenomenon in the art of writing and rewriting
Van Manen’s
Phenomenology that collects data from several people that experienced the phenomenon
Moustakas
