Characteristics, Strengths, Weaknesses and kinds of Quanti Res

In quantitative research, respondents are given very limited opportunity to elaborate their responses.

• True

• False

Which of the following BEST defines quantitative research?

• It is an activity of producing or proving a theorem.

• It is an activity concerned with finding new truths in education.

• It is an exploration associated with libraries, books and journals.

• It is systematic process for obtaining numerical information about the world.

A characteristic of quantitative research which ensures that the reliability is attained.

• Objective

• Numerical Data

• Replicability

• Generalizability

A fewer number of respondents is needed in a study to minimize the error.

• True

• False

In this type of research, the investigator tries to probe significance of relationship between two or more factors or characteristics.

• Correlational

• Descriptive

• Causal-Comparative

• Experimental

A teacher would like to know if a new teaching strategy is effective or not so he/she teaches one section using the new teaching strategy and teaches another comparable section without the new strategy, then an achievement test was given to these two sections. Which type of research does the teacher trying to use?

• Correlational

• Causal-Comparative

• Experimental

• Evaluation

"The use of statistical techniques facilitates sophisticated analyses and allows you to comprehend a huge amount of vital characteristics of data."

The passage describes what to research?

• Characteristic

• Strength

• Weakness

• Kind

Which among the options does not belong to the group?

• Associativity

• Objectivity

• Replicability

• Predictability

When a researcher wants to assess the implementation of nursing care in a hospital and determining the impact of a new treatment procedure for patients, a researcher should use what kind of research?

• Survey

• Descriptive

• Causal-Comparative

• Evaluation

A researcher used causal-comparative research to study how weight influences stress-coping level of adults. Here, the subjects is separated into different groups and their stress-coping levels were measured. Is the researcher correct with the type of research he used?

• Yes, because he tries to find the cause of the adults' stress level.

• No, the researcher instead use correlational research since he tries to get the association between weight and the stress-coping level of adults.

• Yes, because the researcher use the pre-existing characteristic (weight) to form groups.

• No, he should have use the experimental research because the design is more likely controlled.
