research approach

Question 1

Plans or procedures for research that span the steps from broad assumptions to detailed methods of data collection, analysis, and interpretation. Also called research design or research methods.

Answer 1

Research approach

Question 2

An approach for exploring and understanding the meaning individuals or groups ascribe to a social or human problem.

Answer 2

Qualitative Research

Question 3

An approach for testing objective theories by examining the relationship among measurable variables.

Answer 3

Quantitative research

Question 4

An approach to inquiry involves collecting both qualitative and quantitative data, integrating the two forms of data. It involves a combination of qualitative and quantitative approaches to provide a more complete understanding of a research problem than either approach alone.

Answer 4

Mixed method research

Question 5

A form of mixed method design in which the researcher converges or merges quantitative and qualitative data to provide a comprehensive analysis of the research problem. The researcher typically collects both forms of data at the same time and then integrates the information in the interpretation of the overall results.

Answer 5

Convergent parallel mixed method

Question 6

A form of mixed method design in which the the researcher first conducts quantitative research, analyze the result, and then builds on the results to explain them in detail with qualitative research

Answer 6

Explanatory sequential mixed method

Question 7

A design in which the researcher begins with qualitative research explores the views of the participants. The data are then analyzed and built into a second, quantitative phase.

Answer 7

Exploratory sequential mixed method

Question 8

Research design is where researchers are active agents and not merely passive observers. The researcher consciously manipulates the conditions in the study and makes observations in a tightly controlled environment.

Answer 8

True experimental research

Question 9

Summarizes the status of phenomena observed within the natural environment and without any manipulation of the independent variable.

Answer 9

Descriptive research design

Question 10

examine relationships among variables but does not involve manipulation or control of the independent variable, which has already occurred.

Answer 10

Correlational research design

Question 11

“The Lived experiences of people with leprosy: healing wounds while fostering hope”

Answer 11

Phenomenological

Question 12

“The vanishing health practices of Aetas”

Answer 12

Ethnography

Question 13

“Doing my best: Poverty and self-care among
individuals DM”

Answer 13

Grounded theory

Question 14

“A historical analysis of disclosure of terminal status”

Answer 14

Historical

Question 15

Done in the library where answers to specific questions or problems of the study are available. Applicable to historical research.

Answer 15

Library research

Question 16

Conducted in a natural setting. No changes are made in the environment. Applicable to both descriptive and experimental research.

Answer 16

Field research

Question 17

Conducted in artificial or controlled conditions by isolating the study in a rigorous specified and operationalized area. Applicable to experimental, descriptive and case study.

Answer 17

Laboratory research

Question 18

Rights to human subjects

Answer 18

• Right to privacy and dignity
• Right to anonymity and confidentiality
• Right to fair treatment
• Right to protection from discomfort and harm

Question 19

Identity cannot be linked with his individual responses.

Answer 19

anonymity

Question 20

Identity of the research subject will not be linked with the data or information he provides.

Answer 20

confidentiality

Question 21

can be done through the **lottery method or table of random numbers. **(Fishing technique)

Types of probability sampling

Answer 21

Simple random sampling

Question 22

uses the** sampling interval formula**. Sampling interval = total population/ desired sample size. (Ex: even or odd numbers)

Types of probability sampling

Answer 22

Systematic sampling

Question 23

Used to ensure that different groups of the population are adequately included in the sample. (Ex: 1st year = 30 students, 2nd year = 30, 3rd yr = 30…)

Types of probability sampling

Answer 23

Stratified sampling

Question 24

the selection of the sample is accomplished in more than 2 steps

Types of probability sampling

Answer 24

Multi-stage sampling

Question 25

obtained when the researcher selects whatever sampling units are conveniently available.

Answer 25

Accidental or Convenience sampling

Question 26

the sample depends upon the subjective judgment of the researcher.

Types of non-probability sampling

Answer 26

Purposive sampling

Question 27

Types of non-probability sampling: researchers have an assignment of a certain number that must be covered by the research including several criteria.

Types of non-probability sampling

Answer 27

Quota sampling

Question 28

starts with known sources of information who or which will in turn give other sources of information.
