To write your research design in your paper, you must observe the following:
1. State the type of quantitative research you will employ in your paper. 2. Define the type of research you decided to use in your paper because it will help you justify your decision to choose such a research design. 3. Justify why you have used the design and explain how it will help you accomplish your paper.
29
In the Locale of the Study or sometimes Research Locale must include the following elements:
 Location  Total Population
30
you need to write to your Respondents or Participants of the Study. It should include the following elements:
Sample (derived from the population) The formula used in determining the sampling size  Result of the sampling computation  Justification in using the sampling computation  Sampling design in completing or choosing the participants of the sample
31
Two types of sampling designs
 Probability  Non-Probability
32
These designs are referred to as non- probability sampling designs, which are often used in qualitative.
Purposive, Convenience, Theoretical sampling designs.
33
*All members of a population are given an equal chance to be selected. *Selection is made either by drawing a lot or the use of the table of random numbers.
(Simple) Random Sampling
34
It is dividing the population into strata and drawing the sample at random from each division.

ADVANTAGE OR DISADVANTAGE OF SAMPLING It minimizes time, money, and effort. Sampling respondents/ participants are minimized but they are the representation of the population. As such, data collection, analysis, and interpretation are lessened.
ADVANTAGE
42
ADVANTAGE OR DISADVANTAGE OF SAMPLING It makes research more accurate because the small size of collected data has fewer errors in tabulation, presentation, analysis, and interpretation than larger data.
ADVANTAGE
43
ADVANTAGE OR DISADVANTAGE It may become complicated, especially in laborious ones.
DISADVANTAGE
44
ADVANTAGE OR DISADVANTAGE The characteristic to be observed may rarely occur in a population such as a teacher with 30 years of teaching experience.
DISADVANTAGE
45
ADVANTAGE OR DISADVANTAGE It makes research more accurate because the small size of collected data has fewer errors in tabulation, presentation, analysis, and interpretation than larger data.
ADVANTAGE
46
ADVANTAGE OR DISADVANTAGE It makes research faster and cheaper. Having a small portion as the representative of the population, collection, analysis, and interpretation of data is faster and cheaper.

47
ADVANTAGE OR DISADVANTAGE There is a need for an expert to conduct a study in a certain area.
DISADVANTAGE
48
ADVANTAGE OR DISADVANTAGE The result of a study may be misleading if incorrect sampling design or incorrectly following sampling is implemented.
DISADVANTAGE
49
ADVANTAGE OR DISADVANTAGE It is more effective because every individual in the population is given an equal chance to be selected through sampling. Hence, data are scientifically gathered, analyzed, and interpreted.
ADVANTAGE
50
is the ability of an instrument to measure what it intends to measure.
Validity
51
- subjective judgment - related to a specific construct, in the judgment of non-experts -It evaluates the questionnaires appearance in terms of feasibility, readability, consistency of style and formatting, and the clarity of the language used.
Face Validity
52
-This is determined by studying the questions to see whether they are able to elicit the necessary information. - relies instead on logical judgment -An instrument with high content validity -based solely on a systematic comparison of the test
Content Validity
53
_________ validity refers to how well you translated or transformed a concept, idea, or behavior that constructs a functioning and operating reality, the operationalization.
Construct Validity
54
is the extent to which latent variable A discriminates from other latent variables - _____ validity (or divergent validity) tests that constructs that should have no relationship do, in fact,not have any relationship.
Discriminant Validity
55
Construct validity has two components:
convergent and discriminant validity
56
refers to the degree to which two measures of constructs that theoretically should be related, are in fact related.
Convergent Validity
57
This type of validity is an expression of how scores from the test are correlated with an external criterion
Criterion-related Validity or Equivalence Test.
58
is a type of evidence that can be gathered to defend using a test for predicting other outcomes.
Concurrent validity
59
The survey is predictively valid if the test accurately predicts what it is supposed to predict.
Predictive validity
60
is essentially concerned with ‘measurement error,’ i.e., how consistently or dependably a measurement scale measures what it is supposed to measure.
Reliability
61
determined by the degree to which thescores on a given test are related to the scores on another, already established test or criterion administered at a previous point in time(Taherdoost 2016).
Postdictive validity
62
The same test is given to a group of respondents twice.
TEST- RETEST
63
-The person’s mental recollection of his/her responses that he/she gives during the first measurement is quite likely to influence the answers he/she provides during the second measurement. -Memory effects may affect reliability estimates.
Overestimation due to memory
64
- Items sought must be correlated with each other, and the test should be internally consistent. - it is reasonable to assume that a respondent who gets one item right is likely to answer another item that is similar correctly.
Internal Consistency
65
a method of establishing internal consistency wherein a test is given only once to the respondents.
Split half
66
This method measures the extent to which items in one form of a test share commonalities with one another as do the items of an equivalence test form. This is also called the item total correlation.
Kuder-Richardson Test
67
The instrument should be able to identify a case correctly. (i.e., screen or diagnoses a condition correctly)
SENSITIVITY
68
The instrument should identify a non-case correctly (i.e., to screen out those without the conditions correctly).
SPECIFICITY
69
Subjects and researchers should be able to comprehend the behavior required to secure accurate and valid measurements.
Comprehensibility.
70
An instrument should discriminate between people who exhibit varying degrees of an attribute as precisely as possible.
Precision.
71
- The researcher should not rush the measuring process so that he/she can obtain reliable measurements.
5.Speed.
72
The instrument should detect the smallest expected value of the variable to the largest to obtain meaningful measurements.
RANGE
73
A researcher normally strives to construct equally accurate and sensitive measures over the entire range of values.
LINEARITY
74
The instrument should, as much as possible, avoid affecting the attribute being measured.
REACTIVITY
75
-This method involves questionnaires or interviews -usually used in social science
SURVEY REASEARCH
76
- It is the most rigorous research design. -Independent variables are manipulated, subjects are randomly assigned to different treatments or interventions, and the treatments results on outcomes are observed.
EXPERIMENT
77
The use and analysis of official statistics for social research purposes is another alternative to collecting quantitative data.
Official Statistics
78
This approach analyzes documents and texts that seek to quantify content in terms of predetermined categories and a systematic and replicable manner.
Content Analysis
79
- is also called a standardized interview. -The aim of this interview is for all interviewees to be given the same context of questioning.
Structured Interview
80

they are also classified as SAQ, but the content is more of knowing someone’s opinion, attitude, or perception.
Survey Questionnaire
82
Typically used in Education, these instruments are used to measured academic performance or achievements in various learning areas.
Test Papers
83
It is an objective collection of data which is primarily focused on numbers and values – it suggests “associated to, of or depicted in terms of a quantity”.  It is usually used in situations where the respondents cannot answer the researcher’s questions to obtain information for a research study.
OBSERVATION
84
