Review of Related Literature (RRL)
A researcher wants to determine whether there is a relationship between students' study habits and their mathematics grades. Which research design is most appropriate?
Correlational Research Design
A researcher has an alphabetical list of 600 students and decides to survey every 12th student until the desired sample size is reached. Which sampling technique is this?
Systematic Sampling
A researcher only needs science teachers with at least ten years of teaching experience because they possess the specific information required for the study. Which sampling technique is most appropriate?
Purposive Sampling
A student copies an author's exact sentence into the paper but only includes the author and year. According to APA 7th Edition, what important element is still missing?
Page Number
A student includes Bandura's Social Learning Theory in his study and explains how it supports the relationship between students' online behaviors and learning outcomes. Which Chapter 2 component is being developed?
Theoretical Framework
A study asks respondents to answer a 25-item Likert-scale questionnaire that was validated by experts before distribution. Which Chapter 3 component describes these details?
Research Instrument
A school has STEM, HUMSS, and ABM strands. The researcher wants all strands represented before selecting respondents randomly within each strand. Which sampling technique should be used?
Stratified Sampling
A researcher surveys students who happen to be studying in the library because they are immediately available. Which sampling technique is being used?
Convenience Sampling
A researcher writes:
Garcia and Cruz (2024) explained that...
Which type of in-text citation is being used?
Narrative Citation
A researcher creates a diagram showing that Study Habits (IV) influence Academic Performance (DV). What Chapter 2 component does this represent?
Conceptual Framework
A researcher first secures permission from the principal, validates the questionnaire, distributes it, retrieves the responses, organizes the data, and analyzes the results. Which Chapter 3 component is being described?
Data Gathering Procedure
Instead of selecting individual students, a researcher randomly chooses three entire Grade 11 sections and surveys every student inside those sections. Which sampling technique is this?
Cluster Sampling
A researcher is studying former drug dependents. After interviewing one participant, that participant recommends another qualified respondent. Which sampling technique is this?
Snowball Sampling
A student paraphrases the findings of Santos published in 2023 but does not include the author's name or year in the sentence. Which APA component is missing?
In-text Citation
A researcher predicts that students with better time management will have higher academic performance. Which Chapter 2 component contains this prediction?
Hypothesis
A researcher decides that respondents may withdraw from the study anytime without any penalty, and participation is completely voluntary. Which ethical principle is being observed?
Voluntary Participation
A researcher has a complete list of every Grade 10 student and wants each student to have an equal chance of being selected. Which sampling technique best satisfies this condition?
Simple Random Sampling
A researcher is studying survivors of a rare disease, but very few are known. Existing participants continuously refer other qualified participants until enough respondents are obtained. Which sampling technique should be used?
Snowball Sampling
A researcher writes:
Student motivation improves when teachers provide immediate feedback (Garcia, 2023).
Which type of in-text citation is this?
Parenthetical Citation
A researcher is studying the relationship between social media use and academic performance. She writes several paragraphs discussing previous studies about social media, then several paragraphs discussing previous studies about academic performance, followed by a paragraph explaining what all of these studies collectively imply. Which part of Chapter 2 is she writing?
Synthesis of Literature
A study aims to determine whether there is a significant difference in science achievement between male and female students. Which statistical tool should be used?
t-test
A researcher writes the names of all 240 Grade 12 students on pieces of paper, places them in a box, and randomly draws 120 names. Which sampling technique is being used?
Simple Random Sampling
A researcher needs exactly 30 male and 30 female respondents. Data collection stops immediately once these numbers are reached. Which sampling technique is being used?
Quota Sampling
A researcher prepares a page at the end of the paper containing the complete publication details of every source cited in the study. What is this page called?
