Q

TYPES OF EXPERIMENTAL

A
  • TRUE experimental
  • QUASI experimental
  • SINGLE SUBJECT experimental
18
Q

resemble the experimental group but do not receive the experimental treatment.

A

CONTROL GROUP

19
Q

provides a reliable baseline data to which you can compare the experimental results

A

CONTROL GROUP

20
Q

participants who receive the experimental treatment

A

EXPERIMENTAL GROUP

21
Q

also called the predictor variable because it is the presumed cause of the differences in the outcome variable

A

INDEPENDENT VARIABLE

22
Q

also called the outcome variable because it is the outcome that the research is studying

A

DEPENDENT VARIABLE

23
Q

The researcher does not manipulate this

A

DEPENDENT VARIABLE

24
Q

participants have to be randomly assigned to the sample groups

A

RANDOM ASSIGNMENT

25
Q

each research participant must have an equal chance of being assigned to each sample group

A

RANDOM ASSIGNMENT

26
Q

either the participant or the investigator is not informed of the nature of treatment the participant is receiving

A

SINGLE BLINDING / SINGLE-MASKED

27
Q

both study population/participant and data collectors/investigators/researchers are not aware of the kind or nature of the treatment given and who receive the treatment

A

DOUBLE BLINDING / DOUBLE-MASKED

28
Q

the study participant, the data investigator or data collector and the data analyzer- all are
blinded

A

TRIPLE BLINDING

29
Q

exact opposite of blinding, where all the participant, clinicians, data collectors, specialists
are well known about the treatment/intervention they receiv

A

UNBLINDED / OPEN-LABEL

30
Q

SAME with True experimental but LACK of random assignment AND/OR control group

A

QUASI EXPERIMENTAL

31
Q

Allows the researcher to draw conclusions about the effects of treatment based on the response of single patient

A

SINGLE SUBJECT EXPERIMENTAL

32
Q

involve serial observations of individuals before, during, and after interventions, providing feedback that reflects clinical outcomes

A

SINGLE SUBJECT EXPERIMENTAL

33
Q

ELEMENTS OF SINGLE SUBJECT EXPERIMENTAL

A
  • Repeated Measurement
  • Design Phases
34
Q

usually conducted to have a better understanding of the existing problem, but usually does not lead to a conclusive result.

A

EXPLORATORY

35
Q

the process of investigating a problem that has not been studied or thoroughly investigated in the past

A

EXPLORATORY

36
Q

often probes data about personal, environmental, behavioral, or genetic influences that may explain health outcomes

A

EXPLORATORY

37
Q

Subjects and variables pertaining to them are observed and described

A

OBSERVATIONAL

38
Q

No treatment/intervention takes place other than the continuation of normal workflow

A

OBSERVATIONAL

39
Q

TYPES OF OBSERVATIONAL

A
  • CROSS SECTIONAL
  • CASE CONTROL
  • COHORT/LONGITUDINAL
40
Q

The researcher studies a stratified group of subjects at one point in time and draws conclusions about a population by comparing the characteristics of those strata

A

OBSERVATIONAL- CROSS
SECTIONAL

41
Q

involves the examination of data that have been collected in the PAST

A

RETROSPECTIVE

42
Q

often obtained from medical records, databases or surveys

A

RETROSPECTIVE

43
Q

Variables are measured through direct recording in the PRESENT

A

PROSPECTIVE

44
Q

studies are conducted using human populations to evaluate whether there is a correlation or causal relationship between exposure to a substance and adverse health effects

A

EPIDEMIOLOGICAL

45
Q

Elements of Research Design

A
  1. The approach
  2. Population, sample and sampling technique
  3. Time and place of data collection
  4. Tools and Methods of data collection
  5. Method of data analysis
