pr2 quiz 1

Question 1

is generally concerned with understanding phenomenon relating to or involving quality or kind

Answer 1

Qualitative

Question 2

is based on the measurement or quantity.

Answer 2

Quantitative

Question 3

uses scientifically collected and statistically analyzed data to investigate observable phenomena.

Answer 3

Quantitative research

Question 4

To obtain more meaningful statistical result, the data must come from a large sample size.

Answer 4

Large sample saize

Question 5

Data gathering and analysis of results are done accurately, objectively, and are unaffected by the researcher’s intuition and personal guesses.

Answer 5

Objective

Question 6

Data is numerical, which makes presentation through graphs, charts, and tables possible and for better conveyance and interpretation.

Answer 6

visual result presentation

Question 7

The use of a statistical tools give way for a less time consuming data analysis.

Answer 7

faster data analysis

Question 8

Data taken from a sample can be applied to the population if sampling is done accordingly, i.e., sufficient size and random samples were taken

Answer 8

generalized data

Question 9

Depending on the type of data needed, collection can be quick and easy. Quantitative research uses standardized research instruments that allow the researcher to collect data from a large sample size efficiently. For instance, a single survey form can be administered simultaneously to collect various measurable characteristics like age, gender, socio-economic status, etc.

Answer 9

fast data collection

Question 10

Data is taken and analyzed objectively from a sample as a representative of the population, making it more credible and reliable for policymaking and decision making.

Answer 10

reliable data

Question 11

The Quantitative method can be repeated to verify findings enhancing its validity, free from false or immature conclusions.

Answer 11

replication

Question 12

It identifies the relationship between variables.
*Data is collected by observation since it does not consider the cause and effect.
Example: The relationship between the amount of physical activity done and student academic achievement.

Answer 12

CORRELATIONAL DESIGN

Question 13

*Is used to describe a particular phenomenon by observing it as it occurs in nature.
*There is no experimental manipulation and the researcher does not start with a hypothesis.
*This design is used when trying to identify characteristics, categories, and trends.
*The most common methods of collecting descriptive research are case studies, observations, and surveys.

Answer 13

DESCRIPTIVE RESEARCH DESIGN

Question 14

*It is used to establish the cause and effect relationship of variables.
*The quasi-experimental has lesser validity due to the absence of random selection and assignment of subjects.
*The independent variable is identified but not manipulated.
*The researcher does not modify pre existing groups of subjects.
*The group exposed to treatment (experimental) is compared to the group unexposed to treatment (control)

Example: The effects of unemployment on attitude towards following safety protocol in ECQ declared areas.

Answer 14

QUASI-EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN

Question 15

*It is used to investigate a possible relationship between previous events and present conditions.
*The term “Ex post facto”, means after the fact, looks at the possible causes of an already occurring phenomenon.
*Just like the first two, there is no experimental manipulation in this design.
Example: How does the parent’s academic achievement affect the children obesity?

Answer 15

EX POST FACTO DESIGN

Question 16

*It is used to establish the cause and effect relationship of two or more variables.
*This design provides a more conclusive result because it uses random assignment of subjects and experimental manipulations.

Example: A comparison of the effects of various blended learning
to the reading comprehension of elementary pupils.

Answer 16

EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN
