RESEARCH EXAM Flashcards
the overall plan and scheme for conducting
the study
RESEARCH DESIGN
includes the research methods and procedures employed in the conduct of the study.
CHAPTER 3
ENUMERATE THE PARTS OF CHAPTER 3
- METHOD OF RESEARCH
- POPULATION, SAMPLE AND SAMPLING TECHNIQUE
- DESCRIPTION OF RESPONDENTS
- DATA GATHERING PROCEDURE
- RESEARCH INSTRUMENT
- STATISTICAL TREATMENT OF DATA
also known as longitudinal or repeatedmeasure
studies. They are also referred to as
interventions, because you do more than just
observe the subjects.
EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH DESIGN
ENUMERATE THE 3 KINDS OF NON-EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH DESIGN
- DESCRIPTIVE RESEARCH DESIGN
- CORRELATIONAL RESEARCH DESIGN
- HISTORICAL RESEARCH DESIGN
describes the
status of an identified variable such as events,
people or subjects as they exist.
DESCRIPTIVE RESEARCH DESIGN
investigates
the direction and magnitude of relationships
among variables in a particular population.
CORRELATIONAL RESEARCH DESIGN
collects, verifies,
and synthesizes evidence from the past to establish facts that defend or refute your hypothesis.
HISTORICAL RESEARCH DESIGN
the entire group that you want to draw conclusions about (Bhandari, 2020).
POPULATION
the first step leading to the process of
collecting quantitative data
SAMPLE
the specific group that you will collect data from.
SAMPLE
What is Slovin’s Formula?
n= N/1+Ne²
What does N, n, and e stands for?
N = Population
n = Sample Size
e = Margin of Error
method of or process of selecting respondents or people to answer questions meant to yield data for a research study.
SAMPLING
4 REASONS FOR SAMPLING
- NECESSITY
- PRACTICALITY
- COST-EFFECTIVENESS
- MANAGEABILITY
a sampling
technique in which samples are obtained using
some objective chance mechanism, thus
involving randomization.
PROBABILITY SAMPLING
drawing
randomly from a list of the population
SIMPLE RANDOM SAMPLING TECHNIQUE
Taking every kth
element in the population as a sample.
SYSTEMATIC SAMPLING
a process in which
certain subgroups, or strata, are selected for
the sample in the same proportion as they exist in the population.
STRATIFIED SAMPLING
the selection of groups
or clusters of subjects rather than
individuals.
CLUSTER SAMPLING
technique
when there is no way of estimating the probability
that each element has of being included
NON-PROBABILITY SAMPLING
is selecting a
group of individuals who are conveniently
available for study.
CONVENIENCE SAMPLING
the number of sample is
decided by the researcher and selection is
also made out of availability of the
respondents.
QUOTA SAMPLING
using researcher’s
judgment to select a sample that they believe,
based on prior information
PURPOSIVE SAMPLING
one sample leads on to more of the same kind of sample.
SNOWBALL SAMPLING
a tool used to collect, measure, and analyze data related to your
research interests.
RESESRCH INSTRUMENT
Data collection instrument mostly used in normative
surveys
QUESTIONNAIRE
Systematically prepared form or document with a set of questions deliberately designed to elicit responses from respondents for the purpose of collecting data
or information.
QUESTIONNAIRE
GIVE ATLEAST 5 GUIDELINES IN MAKING A QUESTIONNAIRE
- Make all the directions
clear - Usecorrect grammar.
- Avoid asking biased questions.
- Objectify the responses.
- Makeall questions unequivocal / undisputable
TWO TYPES OF SAMPLING
- PROBABILITY SAMPLING
- NON-PROBABILITY SAMPLING
4 EXAMPLES OF PROBABILITY SAMPLING
- SIMPLE RANDOM SAMPLING TECHNIQUE
- SYSTEMATIC SAMPLING
- STRATIFIED SAMPLING
- CLUSTER SAMPLING
