Claims
This type of claim is usually based on a poll or survey and has one measured variable.
What is a frequency claim?
This type of validity applies to all three types of claims and is concerned with how well variables are operationalized and measured.
What is measurement/construct validity
Frequency claims often provide the distribution of a variable and its mathematical average, also called this.
A type of research that employs constructivist-interpretivist and critical-ideological epistemologies.
What is Qualitative research?
This type of claim must be supported by an experimental study.
Effect size and precision (confidence interval, p-value) are concerns in this type of validity.
What is statistical conclusion validity.
This statistical test can be used to calculate correlations between variables.
What is Pearson's r (or Spearman's rho)?
This epistemology drives quantitative research and prioritizes empiricism, objectivity, and the scientific method.
What is (post-postivism)?
This type of claim has two or more measured variables and no manipulated variables.
What is an association claim?
This type of validity exists when findings can be generalized to other populations and/or contexts.
What is external validity?
This experimental design has each participant experience each level of the independent variable.
What is a within-subjects design?
This number is based on how frequently and how widely articles in a journal are cited, and indicates how reputable the journal is.
What is an impact factor?
Internal validity is not relevant to this type of claim
What is a frequency claim?
Confounds interfere with this type of validity, which applies to the issue of causality.
What is internal validity?
This experimental design puts different participants into different levels of the independent variable and compares the groups.
What is a between-groups/independent groups design?
This ethical principle encompasses maximizing benefits and minimizing potential harms of research.
What is beneficence?
Covariance, temporal precedence, and internal validity are needed for this type of claim.
What is a causal claim.
Increasing internal validity often requires us to decrease this.
What is external validity?
This value tells you your ability to detect an effect that does exist.
What is power?
Sample size increases this.
What is statistical conclusion validity?
