research studies - ANSWER-often peer reviewed by two reviewers and are BLIND reviewed
hypotheses - ANSWER-used when conducting experimental or quasi experimental research in the
quantitative paradigm.
A hypothesis - ANSWER-Consists of an independent variable and a dependent variable; these
variables are described in relation to each another.
Experimental - ANSWER-In a(n) ___________ design the researcher controls (manipulates) the
independent variable and randomly assigns subjects to different conditions.
pre-experimental - ANSWER-A(n) __________design does not include mechanisms to compensate
for the absence of either randomization or control group
quasi-experimental - 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 - 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 - 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 - 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 - 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 - ANSWER-The outcome factor; the variable that may change in response to
manipulations of the independent variable.
Independent variable - ANSWER-Also known as the treatment
the variable that is manipulated
Dependent variable - ANSWER-Is the outcome
is caused by the independent variable
Research studies in the quantitative paradigm - ANSWER-Three main types:
Experimental, quasi experimental, nonexperimental
in an experimental design - 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 - 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 - ANSWER-When a researcher collects data without manipulating the
independent variable or introducing an intervention it is.... (eg survey research)
etymology - ANSWER-the study of word origins
Ethnography - ANSWER-the scientific description of the customs of individual peoples and cultures.
experimental study - ANSWER-the researcher manipulates one of the variables and tries to
determine how the manipulation influences other variables
hypthesis - ANSWER-explanation of observations that are testable through experimentation or
observation, educated guess
independent variable - ANSWER-The experimental factor that is manipulated; the variable whose
effect is being studied.
Non-experimental - 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 - ANSWER-An experiment that does not require random assignment to
conditions.
Hypotheses - ANSWER-statements about a relationship between two or more variables
grounded theory - ANSWER-an inductive method of generating theory from data by creating
categories in which to place data and then looking for relationships among categories
qualitative research approaches - ANSWER-Approaches that are continually emerging
ANSWER: B Phenomenology
Quinn's study focuses on a lived experience that would likely be explored using a descriptive
phenomenologic approach. - ANSWER-1. Quinn studied the experience of learning about a parent's
cancer diagnosis, from the perspective of adolescents aged 15 to 18 years.
ANSWER: A Ethnography
, Petrik's study focuses on how members of a particular American subculture provide end-of-life care.
- ANSWER-2. Petrik studied end-of-life caregiving for elders living on a Hopi Reservation in Arizona.
ANSWER: B Phenomenology
Futterer likely used an interpretive phenomenologic approach to study what respite meant to
caregivers who care for a family member with dementia. - ANSWER-3. Futterer studied the meaning
of the respite experience of family caregivers of patients with dementia.
ANSWER: C Grounded Theory
Viator's study focuses on the process of decision making and following through on a decision and
would most likely use grounded theory methods - ANSWER-4. Viator explored how pregnant women
managed the process of deciding on and arranging a home birth.
ANSWER: A Ethnography
Neumann undertook a focused ethnography of the cultural norms and behaviors of patients in
residence at a mental health care facility. - ANSWER-5. Neumann's study focused on reciprocal care-
seeking and caregiving behavior among patients within the culture of an in-patient mental health
care facility.
-Can be used with entire populations or with selected strata
-Yields better results when samples are large
-Elements are selected by nonrandom methods
F - ANSWER-The researcher hand-picks people to be included in a study in cluster sampling. (T/F)
:-) the investigator may omit some important information - ANSWER-A disadvantage of closed ended
interview questions is that:
:-) participant observation - ANSWER-In this technique the investigator collects observational data
while participating in the activities of the group being observed.
Hermeneutics - ANSWER-the branch of knowledge that deals with interpretation, especially of the
Bible or literary texts.
