100
When one claims another work as their own
What is Plagiarism?
100
This determines reliability by using the same group or individuals and administering 2 instruments that measure the same variables.
What is Alternative Form Reliability?
100
Normal bell-shaped curve
What is Mesokurtic?
100
When every nth person or group is selected from the population.
What is Systematic Sampling?
100
A quantitative design in which a survey or questionnaire is administered.
What is Survey?
200
The primary responsibility of a researcher is to reduce any potential risks in order to prevent harm or discomfort to participants.
What is Harm to Participants?
200
Observations of behaviors are made by 2 or more observers.
What is Interrater Reliability?
200
When the distribution is skewed with the fewer scores on the right.
What is Positive or Right Skewness?
200
Participants are selected from the population so that each one has equal chance of being selected.
What is Random Sampling?
200
A qualitative design that is used to describe the lives of others by collecting and telling stories.
What is Narrative Design?
300
Changing data to support your hypothesis.
What is Falsification?
300
Used to determine if the scores are consistent throughout the instrument by using only half of the instrument.
What is Kuder-Richardson Split Half Test?
300
"Heavy-tailed" distribution with too many scores in the outliers.
What is Leptokurtic?
300
Convenience and Snowball Sampling are examples of this.
What is Non-Probability Sampling?
300
A design that measures the relationship between 2 or more variables.
What is Correlational Design?
400
The reason this is important is that increases the chances people will participate and reduces any chance of "psychological harm"
What is Confidentiality?
400
This is used when the variables are continuous.
What is coefficient alpha?
400
When the majority of scores are distributed on the right.
What is Negative or Left Skewness?
400
When a sample is chosen in multiple stages.
What is Multistage Cluster Sampling?
400
This is also called Intervention Studies or Group Comparison Studies.
What is Experimental Design?
500
When participants are purposefully mislead or information about the study is withheld.
What is Deception?
500
This can be used if 3 conditions are met: 1) Answers are categorical 2) Response not based on speed 3) A common factor is measured
What is Kuder-Richardson Split Half Test?
500
"Light-tailed" distribution in which there are too few outliers.
What is Platykurtic?
500
When the population is divided by some characteristic and then randomly sampled.
What is Stratisfied Sampling?
500
A qualitative design that is used to explain a process, action or interaction.
What is Grounded Theory?
