Main types of Qualitative Research
What are Historical, Phenomenological, Grounded Theory, and Ethnographic?
This value occurs most often in a set of data.
What is the mode?
This type of variable is consistent with the outcome in the study.
What is the dependent variable?
There is a negative correlation between using a map and reaching a destination is this type of hypothesis.
What is associative, directional, research and simple?
When a researcher selects a sample from a population they have easy access too this is referred to as this kind of sample and this type of sampling.
What is an accessible sample and convenience sampling?
PICO stands for this.
What is
Population
Intervention
Comparison
Outcome?
This part of a research report explains how the study was planned including design, sampling, data collection processes and how subjects are assigned.
What is the methods section?
Main types of Quantitative Research designs.
What are Descriptive, Correlational, Quasi-Experimental and Experimental?
This is the middle value in a group of data.
What is the median?
The manipulated variable that has an effect on the outcome is known as:
What is the independent variable?
What is null and simple?
This type of error occurs when the null hypothesis is false but is retained. The probability of this error is decreased by setting a higher level of significance and increasing the size of the sample.
What is type II error?
This feature in a research report guides the study and provides a frame for context.
What is the theoretical framework?
This section of the research report details the data collected and the statistical analysis.
What is the results section?
Items required for an experimental design, which is the most effective for establishing cause and effect relationships are:
What are
Manipulation of independent variable
Random assignment
At least 2 groups?
This central value is determined by adding up all the scores and dividing by the total number of scores being summed.
What is the mean?
This type of variable is something that is not the focus of the study but should be acknowledged or controlled for as they are aspects of the sample.
There is a relationship between OnStar Navigation, frequent rest stops, good food and reaching a destination is this type of hypothesis.
What is associative, non directional, research and complex.
The group of subject that does not receive a treatment or intervention is referred to as..
What is the control group?
If a subject has agreed to participate in a study after being provided knowledge and comprehension of the purpose of the subject they are said to have this.
What is informed consent?
The summary of knowledge on a topic, theoretical and scientific is contained in this portion of a research report, and the problem statement is usually found at the end of this section, indicating the significance and need for the study.
What is the review of literature section?
This is true in non experimental studies.
The independent variable cannot truly be manipulated.
The level of measurement that categorizes data from least to most is know as this.
What is ordinal?
These variables may be evaluated in descriptive statistics as they are aspects of the sample.
What are descriptive statistics?
Travelers that use maps will be better in reaching their destinations is what type of hypothesis.
Causal, directional, research and simple
A "treatment" also known as the independent variable can be applied or withheld from a group by the researcher. This is known as..
What is manipulation
The ethical integrity of a proposed study should be evaluated by:
What is the Institutional Review Board?
Is there indication of the significance to nursing is an important question to ask when critiquing this.
What is the research problem?
What is correlational?
Data that can is assigned by name or title that can not be ranked is considered this level of measurement.
What is nominal?
In the following hypothesis; Urinary tract infections can result from poor technique during catheterization; poor technique is the:
What is the independent variable?
A well written hypothesis should do this.
What is clearly define the relationship between 2 or more variables?
The rules used by a researcher that decrease the possibility of error are referred to as:
What is control?
A study that is a form of correlational research that compares a current outcome to a potential past cause is known as:
What is retrospective research?
A problem statement is typically found at the end of this section, indicating the significance of the problem and the need for the study to occur.
What is the literature review section?
A study that lacks 1 of the 3 components of experimental research utilizes this design?
What is quasi-experimental?
This term is used when differences between groups are likely not due to chance and evidenced by a p-value below the level set for the study.
What is statistical significance?
What is non directional?
What is associative?
Probability sampling is also known as this.
What is random sampling?
Tools that measure a variable from one reading to the next consistently are said to be:
What is reliable?
The researcher critiques their own study in this section of the report.
What is the discussion section?
