Quantitative Research correct answer: the type of research that
involves systematic collection and analysis of controlled,
numerical information is

Qualitative Research correct answer: the type of research that

materials is

Scientific Approach correct answer: the approach to knowledge

Field correct answer: naturalistic inquiry always takes place in

Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) correct answer: is broadly

decisions

Replication correct answer: repeating the same studies with
different samples, contexts, or at different times to ensure that
findings are robust

Systematic Reviews correct answer: gather and integrate
research information on a given topic to draw conclusions about
the quality of the evidence accumulated to date; systematic
reviews are central to EBP

Paradigm correct answer: is a worldview; a general perspective
on the complexities of the "real" world

The two broad paradigms are correct answer:
positivist/postpositivist and naturalistic

Determinism correct answer: refers to the positivists' belief that
phenomena (observable facts and events) are not haphazard or
random, but rather have antecedent causes

Positivist Paradigm correct answer: the traditional paradigm
underlying the scientific approach, which assumes that there is a
fixed, orderly reality that can be objectively studied; often
associated with quantitative research

,Postpositivist Paradigm correct answer: a modification of the
traditional positivist paradigm that acknowledges the
impossibility of total objectivity; postpositivists appreciate the
impediments to knowing reality with certainty and therefore
seek probabilistic evidence

Naturalistic Paradigm correct answer: an alternative paradigm
to the traditional positivist paradigm tat holds that there are
multiple interpretations of reality, and that the goal of research is
to understand how individuals construct reality within their
context; often associated with qualitative research

Research Methods correct answer: are techniques researchers

relevant to the research question(s)

Scientific Method correct answer: is a general set of orderly,
disciplined procedures used to acquire information

IMRAD Format correct answer: quantitative reports (and many
qualitative ones) typically follow a conventional format for
organizing content

IMRAD correct answer: organizes material into four sections:
introduction, methods, results and discussion

, Abstract correct answer: a brief description (100-200 words) of
the study placed at the beginning of the article

Findings correct answer: the results obtained from data analysis

Statistical Test correct answer: a procedure for testing
hypotheses and evaluating the believability of the findings

Statistically Significant correct answer: means that based on a
statistical test, the findings are probably reliable and replicable
with a new group of people

Level of Significance correct answer: an index of how probable
it is that the findings are reliable

Study Participants correct answer: the people being studied;
quantitative study

Respondents correct answer: when participants provide
information by answering questions, as in an interview

Informants or Key Informants correct answer: participants who
play an active role; qualitative study

Naturalistic Settings correct answer: in the field (e.g., in
people's homes)

Laboratory Settings correct answer: highly controlled

Fieldwork correct answer: the activities undertaken by
researchers (usually qualitative researchers) to collect data out in
