Introduction
The two main types of research methodologies are quantitative and this type
What is qualitative?
This is a method of acquiring knowledge that uses observations to develop a hypothesis, then uses the hypothesis to make logical predictions that can be empirically tested by making additional, systematic observations.
What is the scientific method?
This is a firsthand report of observations or research results by the researchers themselves.
What is a primary source?
Research variables like pain or guilt are often this and not directly measurable, leading to potential discrepancies in measurement.
What is abstract?
This principle in research focuses on fairness and equitable distribution of benefits and burdens.
What is justice?
This data collection method collects information through questions to individuals or groups about their experiences, opinions, and perspectives, which can be structured, semi-structured, or unstructured.
What is an interview?
This nonscientific method uses observation or direct sensory experience to obtain knowledge.
What is the empirical method?
According to our notes, the 3 recommended relevant databases are Google Scholar, Cochrane Library, and this
What is PubMed?
This is a characteristic or condition that changes or has different values for different individuals
What is a variable?
This core principle involves obtaining voluntary and informed consent from participants, ensuring understanding of the study's aspects and the right to refuse or withdraw without consequences.
What is respect for autonomy?
The FINER criteria for evaluating research questions states that research questions should be Feasible, Interesting, Novel, Ethical, and this:
What is relevant?
In this nonscientific method of obtaining knowledge, a person relies on information or answers from an expert in the subject area.
What is the method of authority?
The ultimate goal of a literature search is to find a set of published research reports that define what?
What is the current state of knowledge in an area?
A theory explains broad patterns and relationships, and provide an overarching framework for understanding how these are related:
What is a construct?
Key components of this ethical guideline include:
- Disclosure of information
- Voluntary participation
- Understanding and comprehension
What is informed consent?
This data analysis method deals with non-numerical data like text, images, or audio, involving coding, categorizing, and interpreting to identify themes, patterns, and relationships.
What is the qualitative analysis?
This element of the scientific process proposes a relationship between variables for testing and evaluation.
What is a hypothesis?
The stability or consistency of a measurement is known as this:
What is reliability?
This core research principle states that researchers must protect participants' personal information and ensure that their privacy is respected throughout the research process
What is confidentiality?
This type of research involves studying past events, developments, and discoveries to understand the evolution of science, this research examines factors influencing scientific progress and the role of basic research in shaping our understanding of the world.
What is historical research?
According to the scientific method, science is empirical, science is public, and science is this term, meaning that a researcher’s biases and beliefs do not influence the outcome of a study
What is objective?
This occurs when the measurements obtained in a study are influenced by the experimenter’s expectations or personal beliefs regarding the outcome of a study
What is experimenter bias?
The key principle in both beneficence and non-maleficence is to what?
What is minimize harm?
