49
What are the 3 Experimental Designs of Quantitative Research and what is their goal?
1. Pre Experimental 2. Quasi - Experimental 3. True Experimental Goal is to establish cause and effect relationships IV and DV effects
50
Causal Claim
Claim that one variable affects the other, IE relationship among variables
51
3 Conditions necessary to make causal claim
1. Causes need to precede effects 2. Needs to be correlation between causes and effects 3. Relationship between causes and effects cannot be explained by other variables
52
What Experimental Design uses random assignment? a. Pre b. Quasi c. True
c. True Experimental
53
What Experimental Designs DO NOT use Random Assignment? a. Pre b. Quasi c. True d. Pre and Quasi
d. Pre and Quasi
54
What Experimental Design HAS a control group? a. Pre b. Quasi c. True
b. Quasi
55
What Experimental Design DOES NOT have a control group? a. Pre b. Quasi c. True
a. Pre
56

1. True 2. Quasi 3. Pre
69
What is the difference between Population and Sample?
Population is the large group of interest for a study where a sample is then taken from to form a smaller group
70
Probability Sampling
Equal probability of individuals in a population to be selected
71
Non Probability Sampling
Selection of participants is based on a non-random method
72
The two forms of collecting samples for quantitative sampling are probability and non-probability sampling. True or False
True
73
What are the 4 Examples of Probability Sampling?
1. Random Selection 2. Systematic Sampling 3. Stratified Random Sampling 4. Cluster Sampling
74
Explain the 4 Types of Sampling Based on the Image
Random = every member same probability Systematic = every Nth person selected Stratified = divided into group based on characteristic and randomly selected from those groups Cluster = each group selected in clusters from random
75
What are the 2 Examples of non-probability Sampling?
1. Convenience Sampling 2. Purposive Sampling
76
What are 3 Purposive Sampling forms?
1. Snowball Sampling 2. Quota Sampling 3. Expert Sampling
77
Explain the 3 Purposive Sampling Forms 1. Snowball Sampling 2. Quota Sampling 3. Expert Sampling
Snowball = identify one participant with characteristic and they find others similar Quota= set a quota number and find that exact amount with characteristics Expert = identify known experience in area of interest
