research studies correct answer: often peer reviewed by two
reviewers and are BLIND reviewed
hypotheses correct answer: used when conducting experimental
or quasi experimental research in the quantitative paradigm.
A hypothesis correct answer: Consists of an independent
variable and a dependent variable; these variables are described
in relation to each another.
Experimental correct answer: In a(n) ___________ design the
researcher controls (manipulates) the independent variable and
randomly assigns subjects to different conditions.
pre-experimental correct answer: A(n) __________design does
not include mechanisms to compensate for the absence of either
randomization or control group
quasi-experimental correct answer: In a(n) _______ design the
investigator does not randomly assign participants but does
manipulate the independent variable and controls to enhance the
internal validity.
non-experimental correct answer: In a(n) ___________ design
the researcher collects data without introducing any treatment.
,5. This experimental design is sometimes called a crossover
design. In the repeated measure design one group of subjects is
exposed to more than one condition in random order.
repeated measure correct answer: This experimental design is
sometimes called a crossover design. In the
________________design one group of subjects is exposed to
more than one condition in random order.
non-equivalent correct answer: This is a type of quasi-
experimental design that involves a comparison group that was
not developed on the basis of random assignment. It is called a
_______________ control group design.
retrospective study correct answer: A(n) ________________
begins with the occurrence of the dependent variable in the
present and then links this effect to some presumed cause which
occurred in the past.
dependent variable correct answer: The outcome factor; the
variable that may change in response to manipulations of the
independent variable.
experimental study correct answer: the researcher manipulates
one of the variables and tries to determine how the manipulation
influences other variables
hypthesis correct answer: explanation of observations that are
testable through experimentation or observation, educated guess
,independent variable correct answer: The experimental factor
that is manipulated; the variable whose effect is being studied.
Non-experimental correct answer: Without the use of a
comparison or control group, has little control over the factors
that affect the validity of the results.
quasi-experimental design correct answer: An experiment that
does not require random assignment to conditions.
Hypotheses correct answer: statements about a relationship
between two or more variables
Independent variable correct answer: Also known as the
treatment
the variable that is manipulated
Dependent variable correct answer: Is the outcome
is caused by the independent variable
Research studies in the quantitative paradigm correct answer:
Three main types:
Experimental, quasi experimental, nonexperimental
in an experimental design correct answer: The researcher
manipulates the independent variable or introduces an
intervention
, Subjects are randomly assigned to a treatment or a control group
(Randomized controlled trial)
(May be used to test a new drug)
A Quasi experimental design correct answer: differs slightly
from experimental
subjects are not randomly assigned to reatment or a control
group
the researcher is still manipulating the independent variable or
introducing an intervention
non-experimental research correct answer: When a researcher
collects data without manipulating the independent variable or
introducing an intervention it is.... (eg survey research)
etymology correct answer: the study of word origins
Ethnography correct answer: the scientific description of the
customs of individual peoples and cultures.
grounded theory correct answer: an inductive method of
generating theory from data by creating categories in which to
place data and then looking for relationships among categories
Hermeneutics correct answer: the branch of knowledge that
deals with interpretation, especially of the Bible or literary texts.
