Practical Research part 1 Flashcards
Statistically, analyzed data to investigate observable phenomena.
Scientifically collected
Any existing or observable fact or situation
Phenomenon
Designing and collecting numerical data
Scientific Method
Pearson’s r, t-test, and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA)
Statistical Analysis
To obtain more meaningful statistical result, the data must come from a large sample size.
Large Sample Size
Data gathering and analysis of results are done accurately, objectively, and are unaffected by the researcher’s institution and personal guesses.
Objective
Data is numerical, which makes presentation through graphs, charts, and tables possible and for better conveyance and interpretation.
Visual Result Presentation
The use of statistical tools give way for a less time-consuming data analysis.
Faster Data Analysis
Data taken from a sample can be applied to the population if sampling is done accordingly, i.e., sufficient size and random samples were taken.
Generalized Data
Depending on the type of data needed, collection can be quick and easy. Quantitative research uses standardized research instruments that allow the researcher to collect data from a large sample size efficiently.
Fast Data Collection
Data is taken and analyzed objectively from a sample as a representative of the population, making it more credible and reliable for policymaking and decision making.
Reliable Data
The Quantitative method can be repeated to verify findings enhancing its validity, free from false or immature conclusions.
