Research Approach

A study carried out by Mikton (2011) found that there is a correlation between the number of hours that students spend on their laptops and their physical health. Which of the following statements would not be potentially true about these findings?

• The reason for an improvement or decrease in a student's health may have nothing to do with laptop use.

• As laptop use increases, the students' physical health improved.

• As laptop use increases, the students' physical health decreased.

• Laptop use is the cause of a decrease in students' physical health.

The sampling method which can be generalized to the widest, most general population is:

• Random sample

• Purposive sample

• Stratified sample

• Self-selected sample

It is known as the process of structuring techniques and strategies that help researchers answer their inquiry.

• Research Blueprint

• Research Design

• Qualitive Inquiry

• Research Techniques

What approach involves studying a particular group or population in the natural setting or in their habitat?

• Grounded theory

• Case study

• Phenomenology

• Ethnography

A group of research elements within which the research respondents will be taken from.

• Population

• Study population

• Sample

• Target population

Instrument based questions

• Quantitative Methods

• Mixed Methods

• Qualitative Methods

Involve the forms of data collection, analysis, and interpretation that researchers propose for their studies

• research method

• research design

• research approach

Research is a process of investigation.

• True

• False

• Unsure

To embark on a research one should starts with

• prepare a research proposal

• write up an introduction

• choose a research problem

• define a method

The goal of a research proposal is to

• conduct a study to propose a solution

• justify a research problem and solve them

• present and justify the need for a study and research problem

• present the practical way in which the proposed research should be conducted
