What is

presenting the data into tables,
graphs or charts.

to the extracting relevant
information from the given
data from which numerical
description can be
formulated.

These are also the values
(measurements or observations)
that the variables can assume.
 Two types of Data

represented by numbers. It
is also a numerical
information with
measurable units.
Examples: age, weight, height

tal
on Method
Method
a. Survey and Questionnaires
Surveys involve asking individuals a set of
predetermined questions, often in written form, to
gather information about their opinions, behaviors, or
characteristics.
Application: Used in social sciences, market
research, and public opinion polls
Advantages: Cost-effective, can reach a large
audience, standardized format
Challenges: Response bias, limited depth of
information
a. Survey and Questionnaires
Example:

Daniel conducted a survey about the preferred

interest club of the students.
b. Interviews
Interviews involve direct interaction between a
researcher and a participant, where questions are asked
and responses are recorded.

Application: Common in qualitative research, case

studies, and in-depth investigations
Advantages: Allows for in-depth exploration,
flexibility in questioning, and clarification of
responses
Challenges: Time-consuming, potential for
interviewer bias
b. Interviews

Examples:

1. Favorite Cartoon Network Character of Kinder

Students

2. Effects of eating organic vegetables to the

health of a person.

3. You would like to get the opinion of the

President regarding “US-Kuwait Conflict.
c. Observations
Researchers directly observe and record behavior, events, or
phenomena without direct interaction with the participants.
It makes use of the different human senses in gathering information.
The data are gathered either individually or collectively.

Application: Used in naturalistic studies,

ethnography, and behavioral research
Advantages: Provides firsthand information and
minimizes response bias
Challenges: Observer bias, limited insight into
underlying motivations
c. Observations

Examples:

1. Asher observed students entering classroom for

a class and recorded whether the first half of the
students who arrived for class chose to sit in front
of the room.
2. Jessa wanted to find whether a die was fair or
biased. She tossed the die 40 times and recorded
the results.
d. Experiments
Researchers manipulate variables to observe the effect
on the outcome. Controlled conditions help establish
cause-and-effect relationships.

Application: Common in natural sciences,

psychology, and medicine
Advantages: Allows for causal inference, high
internal validity
Challenges: Artificial settings may limit
generalizability, ethical concerns

sand in the production of hollow blocks.

2. A new beauty product company is trying to

conduct a research on which of their two products
is more effective to lighten pimple marks.

 SAMPLING
TECHNIQUES
SIMPLE RANDOM SAMPLING
A common sampling techniques. In this method,
everyone in the population has an equal chance of
being chosen to be part of the sample.
SIMPLE RANDOM SAMPLING
A common sampling techniques. In this method,
everyone in the population has an equal chance of
being chosen to be part of the sample.
Example:
If you want to know how many Grade 7 students
watch television for two or more hours a day, then
it does not matter if response comes from a male or
female, left-handed or right-handed student. In this
case, simple random sampling is a good way to get
a sample.
STRATIFIED RANDOM
A sampling technique that divides the big population
SAMPLING
into smaller groups, called “strata”. Elements of
each smaller group are then chosen to make up the
sample.

Example:
Following the example a while ago, suppose you
divide the group of Grade 7 students into male
Grade 7 students and female Grade 7 students and
choose from each subgroup to create this sample.
The sampling technique that you just used is
stratified random sampling.
SYSTEMATIC RANDOM
A sample is created by choosing members

Example:
If you had a class list arranged alphabetically, and
you randomly chosen every 10th person from the
list, then what did was systematic random
sampling.
Worked Examples:
Instructions: For each scenario provided, choose the
appropriate sampling technique to be employed.
Scenario 1: You are conducting a survey to
understand the preferences of students in a large
university. To ensure representation from each
academic department, you decide to sample 20
students from each department.

Stratified Sampling
Worked Examples:
Instructions: For each scenario provided, choose the
