A

documentary sources and field measurements

24
Q

census health, statistics, and weather bureau reports

A

use of existing studies

25
uses published or written reports periodicals, and unpublished documents
documentary sources
26
uses researchers who have done studies on the area of interest are personally or directly for information needed
field measurements
27
refers to continuous permanent and compulsory recording of the occurrence of vital events together with certain identify or descriptive characteristics concerning them as provided through the civil code laws or regulations of each country
registration methods
28
what are the types of collecting data
* non-probability sampling * probability sampling
29
Sampling procedure that gives every element of the population a (known) nonzero chance of being selected in the sample
PROBABILITY SAMPLING
30
Sampling technique where the odds of any member being selected for a sample cannot be calculated
NON-PROBABILITY SAMPLING
31
types of probability sampling
simple random sampling stratified random sampling cluster sampling systematic sampling multi-stage sampling and sequential sampling
32
types of non-probability sampling
purposive sampling quota sampling convenience sampling expert sampling
33
what is another word for subpopulation
strata
34
it is when population of N units is divided into strata
stratified sampling
35
method of sampling where a sample of distinct groups, or clusters, of elements is selected and then a census of every element in the clusters is taken
cluster sampling
36
method of selecting a sample by taking every kth unit from an ordered population, the first unit being selected at random
systematic sampling
37
it is divided into a hierarchy of sampling units corresponding to the different sampling stages
multi-stage sampling
38
the units are drawn one by one in a sequence of without prior fixing of the total number of observations and the results of the drawing at any stage are used to decide whether to terminate sampling or not.
sequential sampling
39
also known as judgment, selective, or subjective sampling
purposive sampling
40
sets out to make a sample agree with the profile of the population based on some pre-selected characteristics
purposive sampling
41
selects a specified number of sampling units possessing certain characteristics
quota sampling
42
types of quota sampling
controlled and uncontrolled
43
introduction of certain restrictions in order to limit researcher's choice of samples
controlled quota sampling
44
resembles convenience sampling
uncontrolled quota sampling
45
researcher is free to choose sample group members according to his/her will
uncontrolled quota sampling
46
one of the most common methods of sampling
convenience sampling
47
also known as "accidental" or "haphazard" sampling
convenience sampling
48
what are the levels of measurement
* nominal * ordinal * interval * ratio
49
what are the major types of data
* qualitative * quanitative * constant * variable
