Q

Steps in developing prototypes

A

Develop a prototype by identifying objectives, identifying risks, formulating a hypothesis, constructing it, assessing its functionality through an experiment, and utilizing the results to enhance it.

formulas
20
- all participants have an equal chance of being selected.
Simple random sampling
21
Best way to obtain a representative sample, Fishbowl method, electronic raffle/ spin the wheel.
Simple random sampling
22
population is divided into subgroups/ stratas having similar characteristics, from which the samples are drawn
Stratified sampling-
23
Ensure that all subgroups are represented adequately in the sample, best used when characteristics of subgroups may influence variables being measured.
Stratified sampling
24
- population is divided into subgroups regardless of characteristics
Cluster sampling
25
what is the cons and solution for cluster sampling
CON: possible inadequate representation of each characteristic among the population SOLUTION: large number of samples should be used from the subgroups
26
selecting members of the population based on a fixed interval (every nth value).
Systematic sampling
26
4 Probability Sampling
Simple random sampling Stratified sampling Cluster sampling Systematic sampling
27
is a method where each item has an unknown possibility of being selected
Non-probability Sampling
28
4 Non-probability Sampling
Convenience Sampling Judgemental/purposing sampling Snowball Sampling Quota Sampling
28
Sample is chosen based on what is conveniently available
Convenience Sampling `
29
Sample is chosen based on who is knowledgeable or expert in the topic at hand.
Judgemental/purposing sampling
29
Used when the subjects are very difficult to find or very sensitive topic
Snowball Sampling
29
Used to obtain the same characteristics found in the population.
Quota Sampling
30
What are the instruments used to gather data
Test Observation Interviews Questionnaire
31
- Instrument “appears” to measure variables being studied. Subjective.
Face Validity
32
Consider having another coder or evaluator to help gather data when using more subjective tools (observation, interview, etc.) to improve validity and reliability
Data Gathering tool
33
Degree to which an instrument measures the specific elements it is supposed to measure.
Content validity
34
Done with a list of specifications provided by subject matter experts.
Content Validity
35
Degree to which an instrument measures the variables being studied, as a whole.
Construct validity
36
Degree to which an instrument predicts characteristics of a variable in a certain way, producing similar results to that of another instrument
Criterion validity
37
ability to predict results similar to those already conducted in the past, especially when two instruments are employed simultaneously
Concurrent validity
38
ability to predict results similar to another instrument which may be used in the future
Predictive validity
39
Consistency of the measures of an instrument.
Reliability
40
administer an instrument twice and compute the consistency of scores. Conduct retest in a shorter period of time to record a higher correlation
Test-retest reliability
41
– administer two identical tests (same coverage, difficulty level, test type, and format, but different in wording, e.g., pre- and post-test)
Equivalent forms reliability
41
measures how well the items in two instruments measure the same construct
Internal consistency reliability
42
measures the consistency used to evaluate the extent to which different judges agree in their assessment decisions
Inter-rater reliability
43
Present what you intend to do or what you did in a step-by-step manner so that other researchers can easily replicate the stud
Data Gathering Procedure
43
*Letter of permission to conduct data gathering (if applicable) *Informed consent form Pilot-testing
What you need before data collection:
43
Describe in detail how your paper exemplifies research ethics in every step
Data Gathering Procedure
43
Triangulate results using two or more sources and methods.
During data collection:
44
encoding, transcribing, and archival of data Analysis and interpretation
After:
45
also be used for easier replication in future studies (which also ensures validity and reliability of study you conducted).
flowchart
46
usually stated in paragraph form
Procedure
47
Rests on a number of assumptions about data distribution and/ or frequency of their occurrence
Parametric Test
48
Have more statistical power because assumptions are mathematical in nature
Parametric Test
49
Can detect whether IV significantly affects DV
Parametric Test
50
Used for interval or ratio scales
Parametric Test
51
Used for sample sizes of 30 or more
Parametric Test
52
Used if data distribution is normal
Parametic Test
53
measure of heaviness of the tail of the distribution, indicating presence of outliers
Kurtosis
53
High kurtosis
leptokurtic
54
Medium kurtosis
(mesokurtic
55
(lack of evenness in data distribution
skewness
56
Low kurtosis
(platykurtic
57
Negative skew
(left-tailed, right-leaning
58
Positive skew
right-tailed, left-leaning
59
the specific procedures that was being used to distinguish and dissect information about the research topic.
Methodology
59
the tool that was being maximized by the researcher to gather and collect the data from the respondents.
