“What do you know” - Student-1

Research “What do you know” - EXAM II “What do you know” Part 1 1. Data collected repeatedly from the same sample/group/population over an extended period of time 2. Research that does not manipulate variables, it helps gain better understanding of the population studied, and provides no conclusions about “why” an effect occurred. 3. Evaluates the relationship between 2 or more variables. 4. Research that explores cause and effect relationships by manipulating data, assesses the cause and effect, and provides conclusions based on the findings. 5. Data that consists of numbers and measurements, investigates statistical relationships between two variables, and tests hypotheses. 6. Data collected from a population at a specific point in time and/or data is collected from different groups at the same time. 7. Uses open-ended questions, explores ideas and formulates hypotheses, and does not control the conditions surrounding the research. Word Bank A. Descriptive B. Experimental C. Correlational D. Cross-sectional E. Longitudinal F. Quantitative G. Qualitative “What do you know” Part 2

1. True or False: A narrative review summarizes and discusses the results of many studies in a particular topic where a meta-analysis combines a couple of similar studies and uses standardized statistical procedures to compare their results. 2. True or False: Primary research is peer-reviewed while secondary research is not. 3. ______ Section of the research paper that states the purpose, hypothesis, and the review of related literature to the topic of the research being done 4. ______ Direct statement stating the goals of the research study 5. ______ Finding were statistically significant - often the same as your research hypothesis 6. ______ Gives a predicted non-directional response 7. ______ A short concise summary of the research paper 8. ______ Give a predicted directional response 9. ______ Explains the study’s participants, variables, research designs, and the measurement techniques used 10. ______ Explanation of the analyses used and what the researcher(s) found when they analyzed the data 11. ______ Findings were not statistically significant - no effect and/or relationship between the variables 12. ______ Interprets and described the significance of the findings, relates the findings to previous research, and addresses any limitations within the study design 13. ______ Restates the research problem, summarizes the findings, and addresses the practical applications 14. ______ A statement that can be tested by scientific research Word Bank A.
