TRUE or FALSE

1. In quantitative research, researchers know in advance what they are looking for.
2. Quantitative research can be easily misinterpreted because it provides numerical data.
3. Quantitative research puts emphasis on proof, rather than discovery.
4. Normative research is conducted by researcher whose aim would be to find out the direction and/or
relationship between different variables or group of respondents under study.
5. Qualitative research requires a large number of respondents. It assumes that the larger the sample is, the
more statistically accurate the findings are.

CHECK or WRONG

1. In this design, the researcher can collect more data, either by scheduling more observations or finding
more existing measures.
2. It is conducted by researchers whose aim would be to find out the direction, associations and/or
relationship between different variables or groups of respondents under study.
3. It refers to the overall strategy that you choose in order to integrate the different components of the
study in a coherent and logical way, thereby ensuring you will effectively address the research problem.
4. It controls for both time-related and group-related threats. Two features mark true experiments: two or
more differently treated groups; and random assignment to these groups.
5. All variables in the study can contribute to the over-all prediction in an equation that adds together the
predictive power of each identified variable.

STRENGTH or WEAKNESS

1. The most reliable and valid way of concluding results, giving way to a new hypothesis or to disproving it.
2. Since, there are more respondents compared to qualitative research, the expenses will be greater in
reaching out to these people and in reproducing questionnaires.
3. If not done seriously and correctly, data from questionnaires may be incomplete and inaccurate.
4. Standardized approaches allow the study to be replicated in different areas or over time with formulation
of comparable findings.
5. Quantitative experiments are useful for testing the results gained by a series of qualitative experiments,
leading to a final answer, and narrowing down of possible directions to follow.
MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. Which of the following refers to the characteristic of quantitative research which refers to its necessity to arrive
at a more reliable data analysis?
A. Large Sample Sizes
B. Replication
C. Numerical Data
 D. Objective
2. Which of the following is done to check the correctness and verify the findings of the study?
A. Large Sample Sizes
B. Replication
C. Numerical Data
D. Objective
3. Which of the item below does NOT hold true for descriptive research?
A. Describes the nature of a situation or an event
B. Presents the profile of persons, events, and things
C. Describes past situations
D. There is no manipulation of variables or search for cause and effect related to the performance
4. Which of the following BEST defines quantitative research?
A. It is an exploration associated with libraries, books and journals.
B. It is an activity concerned with finding new truth in education.
C. It is a systematic process obtaining numerical information about the world.
D. It is an activity of producing or proving a theorem.
5. Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of quantitative research?
A. Data are gathered before proposing a conclusion or solution to a problem.
B. Quantitative methods can be repeated to verify findings in another setting, thus strengthen and
reinforcing validity of findings eliminating the possibility of spurious conclusions.
C. Figures, tables or graphs showcase summarized data collection in order to show trends, relationships or
differences among variables. In sum, the charts and tables allow you to see the evidence collected.
D. It seeks to gather a more comprehensive understanding of activities related to human behavior and the
attributes that rule such behavior.

CONFOUNDING INTERVAL NOMINAL

ORDINAL RATIO ABSTRACT

1. It refers to the characteristics that have two or more mutually exclusive values or properties.
2. Variables that represent categories that cannot be ordered in any particular way.
3. Special kind of independent variables that are measured in a study because they potentially
influence the dependent variable.
4. Variables that have values that lie along an evenly dispersed range of numbers when there is an
absolute zero, as opposed to net worth, which can have a negative debt-to-income ratio-level
variable.
5. Kind of variable that are not actually measured or observed in a study. They exist but their
influence cannot be directly detected in a study.
6. It “stands between” the independent and dependent variables, and they show the effects of the
independent variable on the dependent variable.
7. Variables that represent categories that can be ordered from greatest to smallest.
8. Kind of variable that probably cause, influence, or effect outcomes. They are variably called
treatment, manipulated, antecedent or predictor variables.
9. Variables that depend on independent variables; they are the outcomes or results of the
influence of the independent variable.
10. Variables that have values that lie along an evenly dispersed range of numbers.
