PRACTICAL RESEARCH 2
FIRST SUMMATIVE ASSESSMENT
JULY 01, 2019 I. True or False
1. Data is in the form of words, pictures or objects.
2. The data is usually gathered using structured research instruments. 3. It is not based upon numerical measurements and does not use numbers and statistical methods as key research indicators and tools. 4. It tends to be associated with small-scale studies and a holistic perspective, often studying a single occurrence or small number of occurrences/case studies in great depth. 5. The research study can usually be replicated or repeated, given its high reliability. 6. Emphasis in on discovery rather than proof. 7. Data are in the form of numbers and statistics, often arranged in tables, charts, figures, or other non- textual form. 8. The results are based on larger sample sizes that are representative of the population. 9. It tends to be associated with emergent research design, using a wide range of approaches 10. Researcher has a clearly defined research question to which objective answer are sought. II. IDENTIFICATION
1. Is a study designed to depict the participant in an accurate way?
2. Defined as a brief interview or discussion with an individual about a specific topic? 3. Defined as an in-depth study of an individual or group of individuals? 4. Defined as a method of viewing and recording the participants? 5. Research design that is commonly used in sciences such as sociology and psychology, physics, chemistry, biology, and medicine. 6. Is a quantitative method of research in which you have 2 or more quantitative variables from the same group of subjects? 7. Design involves selecting groups, upon which a variable is tested, without any random pre-selection processes? 8. Is the systematic empirical investigation of observable phenomena via statistical, mathematical or computational techniques? 9 – 10. Quantitative research is defined by _____________,and ____________ that entailing the collection of numerical data and exhibiting the view of relationship between theory and research as deductive, a predilection for natural science approach and as having an objectivist conception of social reality. III. Enumeration\
1-4. four main types of Quantitative Research Design.
