This is the “outcome” or “effect” variable.
What is the dependent variable?
200
What is the difference between ratio and interval scales?
What is an amount per some unit?

What conditions (3) affect the type that can be used?
What is ethics, amount of variables, and randomization.
200
What does “O” stand for in an experiment?
What is Measurement observation or outcome?
200
What type of sampling is used when you have no control over who you can choose to participate in an experiment?
What is Probability sampling?
300
What type of hypothesis is your group required to have for this project?

300
How are variable measurement scales used in research?
What is they are used in tabulating results from experiments?
300
How can an experiment test two different variables?
What is seeing how to different systems compare?
300
What does “X/Y” stand for in an experiment?
What is Independent variables or treatments?
300
What is the main difference between probability and nonprobability sampling?
What is Randomizaton?
400
Identify the independent and dependent variables in this hypothesis: There will be a statistically significant difference in the grades of students who attend FCS 380 PLF workshops that those who do not attend.
What is the dependent variable is th grades and the independent variable is the FCS 380 PLF workshops?
400
If I were to use students’ grades as responses in a research experiment, what measurement scale would I be using?
What is an ordinal scale?
400
Which experiment examines observations and case studies? Non Experiment
What is Non Experiment?
400
4. What is the group that does not receive the treatment called?
What is the Control group?
400
What actions could you take in trying to create probability sampling (ensuring that you are least selective as possible)?
What is picking numbers out of a phone book?
500
Give me a directional hypothesis including both a dependent and independent variable involving financial literacy counseling and a level of understanding.
What is the more students receive financial literacy counseling, the better understanding they will have of finances.
500
Give me an example of a nominal measurement scale.(Not Colors)
What is different majors within FCS?

What is True Experiment?
500
Give me an example of a pretest/posttest survey that could be used in a hypothetical experiment.
What are administered driving tests before and after driving lessons?
