What is APA Conduct of Research in Human Subjects
200
does not make a specific prediction about what direction the outcome of a study will take. For example, “There will be a difference between scores on an attitude measure of students with learning disabilities placed in special classes and the same students placed in regular classrooms.”
What is Non-directional hypothesis
200
is the middle point in a set of data that has been arranged in ascending or descending order
What is median
200
an evaluation of the adequacy and appropriateness of the interpretations and uses of assessment results
What is validity

What is informed consent
300
allow researchers to generalize to a population of individuals based on information obtained from a limited number of research participants
What is Inferential statistics
300
Score is calculated by subtracting the mean from the raw score and dividing by the standard deviation. It allows scores to be compared from two different tests.
What is z-score
300
2) A measure of how well the items on an instrument represent the entire selection of items from which they are drawn. _____ validity is especially helpful when evaluating the usefulness of achievement tests, which sample a particular area of knowledge.
What is Content Validity
300
Research relies primarily on the collection of numerical data
What is Quantitative research

What is (Alpha) Rejecting the null hypothesis when it is true and (Beta) Accepting the null hypothesis when it is false
400
The approximate indicator of how far numbers tend to vary from the mean.
What is standard deviation
400
is a process in which every “nth” individual in the population list is selected for inclusion in the sample sampling interval is the distance between each of the individuals selected for the sample sampling ratio is the proportion of the individuals in the population who are selected for the sample
What is 1) Systematic sampling

test assume the population of individuals follow a normal curve for samples sizes under 30 used when standard deviation of population is unknown 7) Results are often presented in table form
What is t-test
500
a grouping of data into mutually exclusive categories, showing the number of observations in each category
What is frequency distribution
500
Rather than randomly selecting 100 students from a population of 3000 9th graders located in 100 classes, the researchers might decide to select 25 classes randomly from the population of 100 classes and then randomly select 4 students from each class. This is much less time-consuming than visiting most of the 100 classes.
What is two-stage random sample
