RESEARCH STRATEGIES

A sample that fairly represents a population because each member of the population has an equal chance of being included.

• Blind Procedure
• Survey Method
• Random Sample
• Replication

As the value of one variable increases, the value of the other variable decreases.

• Cross-sectional Study
• Independent Variable
• Positive Correlation
• Negative Correlation

A research project strategy that investigates the degree to which two variables are related to each other.

• Correlation Study
• Survey Method
• Double Blind Procedure
• Cross-Secetional Study

In an experiment, a variable other than the independent variable, that could produce a change in the dependent variable.

• Blind Procedure
• Double Blind Procedure
• Confounding Variables
• Correlation Study

As the value of one variable increases (or decreases) so does the value of the other variable.

• Cross-Sectional Study
• Positive Correlation
• Negative Correlation
• Scientific Method

There is no relationship whatsoever between the two variables.

• Confirmation Bias
• Zero Correlation
• Dependent Variable
• Correlational Study

The participants in an experiment who are exposed to the independent variable.

• Experimental Group
• Independent Group
• Significant Group
• Variable Group

A method of learning about the world through the application of critical thinking and tools

• Phrenology
• Critical Insight
• Formulated Thinking
• Scientific Method

A research technique that compares individuals from different age groups at one time.

• Cross-Sectional Study
• Survey Method
• Negative Correlation
• Correlation Study

The variable that should show the effect of the independent variable.

• Independent Variable
• Statistical Variable
• Hobson's Variable
• Dependent Variable
