pr Flashcards
examination of relevant books, scholarly articles, and any other sources pertinent to an area of research.
rrl
summaries of past research
integrative review
focus on extant theory that relates to the problem being studied
theoretical review
provides a summary of the study and an actual critique of the strengths and weaknesses of the methods of sections
methodological review
3 forms of rrl
integrative review, theoretical review, and methodological review
4 research misconduct
dogmatism, fabrication, falsification, and plagiarism
Unwritten policy of certain institutions and governments prohibiting the study of topics that are believed to run counter to the established doctrines of such institutions or governments
dogmatism
Making up data or results and recording or reporting them
fabrication
Manipulating research materials, equipment, or processes, or changing or omitting data or results such that the research is not accurately represented in
the research record.
falsification
Appropriation of another person’s ideas, processes, results, or words without giving appropriate credit.
plagiarism

must demonstrate an understanding of theories and concepts that are relevant to the topic of your research paper and that will relate it to the broader fields of knowledge in the class you are taking.
theoretical framework
Serves as the blueprint or a skeletal framework that outlines how the research would go
research design
(Confirmatory Researches)
-test prespecified relationships
non-experimental
(Exploratory Researches)
-define possible relationships in only the most general form and then allow multivariate techniques to estimate a relationship(s)
experimental
A design used to describe a certain condition or phenomenon
in a given sample using quantifiable descriptors.
descriptive research design
A design used to describe a certain condition or a phenomenon in a given population using quantifiable descriptors.
longitudinal research design
A design used to seek a significant relationship between identified variables.
correlational research design
-Random
-Manipulation
-Control
true experimental design
-Pre-Experimental
-Time Series Design
quasi-experimental design
The bigger group where the sample was chosen.
population
Method or process of selecting respondents or people to answer
questions meant to yield data for research study
sampling
sampling techniques: All members listed in the sampling frame
representing a certain population focused on the
study
probability
sampling techniques: Disregard the random selection of subjects. Based on availability or purpose of the study
non-probability
Pure chance selection
srs
chance and system determine the sample
systematic
group-by-group analysis
stratified
isolate set of persons instead of individual members to serve as sample members
cluster
choosing with specific characteristic
qouta
no selection
voluntary
choose people whom could correspond with the objective of the study
purposive / judgemental
the willingness of a person to be a subject
availability
pref. for respondents with unspecified groups of people
snowball
