QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH DESIGN Flashcards
Research Design
Blueprint for data collection, measurement, and analysis
Research Design
Gives idea on the variable you’ll be looking for
Research Design
Ensures that research problem is addressed
Elements of Research Design
> The Approach
Method of Data Analysis
Tools and Methods of DC — Time and Place of DC
Population, Sample, and Sampling Technique
Approaches / Types in Research Design
Qualitative
Quantitative (with or without conceptual framework)
Mixed Methods
MATCH RS QUESTIONS TO RS DESIGN
>Test the effect of..
>Test an association between…
>Describe the characteristics of…
>systematically looking at the findings of many studies
MATCH RS DESIGN TO RS QUESTIONS
>EXPERIMENTAL
>OBSERVATIONAL
>DESCRIPTIVE
>meta-analysis or systematic descriptive synthesis
Factors under quantitative design
Descriptive
Experimental
Exploratory
Types of descriptive design
> case report / case series
survey
Types of experimental design
> true experimental
quasi-experimental
single-subject
Types of exploratory design
> observational
epidemiological
Reduce experimental biases
Random selection of sample from known population
Random allocation of sample
Blinding participants
Who are involved in a research
Participants / Population
Data Collector / Data Investigators / Researchers
Data Analyzers
Reduction of biases
Single-blinding / single masked
Double-blinding / double masked
Triple blinding
unblinded / open-label
Elements of experimental: single subject
Repeated measurements
Design phases
Factors of design phases
Base phase
Intervention phase
