100
Field site
What is the location(s) where the researcher plans to conduct their study
100
This is a level of measurement that includes no ranking and only offers a name or label for a variable
What is nominal
100
This is a literature review
What is it surveys, summarized and links together research in a given field or topic
100
convenience sampling
What is sampling technique involves selecting subjects based on who's available at the time of the sample collection
100
a technique that is used when the desired sample characteristic is rare, it relies on referrals from initial subjects to add more subjects
What is snowball sampling
200
evaluation research
What is a form of applied research where effectiveness of a policy or program is evaluated (looking at cause and effect of changes made in a program).
200
Intercoder reliability
What is checking the consistency of coding of content by comparing the themes found by multiple coders.
200
Difference between author and theme literature review
What is one is written as summaries from authors while the other is written based on themes
200
This sampling method involves the "kth" element whereby an interval is created to select units for the sample
What is systematic sampling
200
"N" and "n" when discussing sampling
What is population and sample respectively
300
You do not participant in activity but observe from the periphery
What is nonparticipant observer
300
These are the three measurement classes used by social scientists
What is direct observations, indirect observations, and constructs
300
This type of literature review technique examines broad-based research first and then focus on specific studies that relate to the topic
What is General-to-Specific Order
300
The two types of sampling methods
What is probability sampling and non-probability sampling
300
Three factors that influence sample representativeness
What is sampling procedure, sampling size and participation (response)
400
These are negative case
What is in research, these are cases that go against your hunch
400
These are the four levels of measurement
What is nominal, ordinal, interval and ratio
400
This is the importance of distinguishing multiple definitions of a concept
What is it helps understand how it's been defined and thus how it was measured based on the definition. We want to be consistent.
400
The difference between a population and a sample
What is a population is defined as including all people or items with the characteristic one wishes to understand while a sample is a supposed to be a representative sample of the population
400
Systematic, Cluster, Multistage are types of
What is Simple Random Sampling (Probability Sampling Techniques)
500
In ethnography, what else can a researcher do beyond observation to gather information
What is collect artifacts, documents which may fill in gaps in that exist from your interviews and observations
500
This type of validity measures how logically related to another as you have conceptualized it to be
What is construct validity
500
This is the what you should be able to do after writing your literature review given you discussed theory and concepts of your topic
What is set up your hypotheses which come from your literature review.
500
What was the strata used for the sampling
What is color of the M&MS
500
What types of sampling did we do for the sampling activity
What is Simple Random (Systematic and Stratified)
