This is a type of analysis that involves more than 2 variables.
What is multivariate analysis?
100
This term refers to the bivariate relationship first observed.
What is a zero-order relationship?
100
This type of hypothesis assumes that there is no relationship between two variables.
What is null?
100
This is the appropriate measure of association for two ordinal level variables.
What is gamma?
200
This is what Grounded Theory begins with.
What are observations?
200
This is the most frequent attribute, in either grouped or ungrouped data.
What is the mode?
200
This term refers to a variable held constant in the elaboration model to determine the relationship between other variables.
What is a test or control variable?
200
This type of statistic can be used to determine whether or not there is a statistically significant relationship between two variables in a contingency table.
What is the Chi-square statistic?
200
A level of significance less than this value would lead one to reject the null hypothesis.
What is less than .05?
300
This is the study of signs.
What is semiotics?
300
Income in an example of this type or level of variable.
What is a continuous or interval level variable?
300
A relationship between IQ and shoe size, with no other variables measured is the example of this.
What is a zero-order relationship?
300
This is the appropriate measure of association for two nominal level variables.
What is Lambda?
300
This type of analysis involves both art and science.
What is qualitative analysis?
400
This involves classifying or categorizing individual pieces of data.
What is coding?
400
This measure of central tendency is the result of dividing the sum of the values by the total number of cases.
What is the mean?
400
This term refers to a variable that reverses the direction of a zero-order relationship when it is included in an elaboration model.
What is a distorter variable?
400
This is the appropriate measure of association for two ratio-level variables.
What is Pearson’s r?
400
This is a graphical format for displaying the relationships among concepts.
What is concept mapping?
500
This is typically the first type of qualitative coding that is done.
What is open coding?
500
Comparing your research assistants’ coding of survey responses with each other, helps to improve this.
What is reliability?
500
This is the difference between interpretation and explanation.
What is the time placement of the test variable?
500
This level of significance means there is only a 5% chance that a statistic’s value could be obtained as a result of sampling error only.
What is .05?
500
This family of statistics is use to make inferences to the population the sample was taken from.
