• Establishing cause-and-effect relationships

• Describing characteristics

• Testing hypotheses

An independent variable in an experiment is:

• The outcome measured

• The factor manipulated

• The constant factor

• The uncontrolled factor

Which of the following best describes correlational research?

• Establishes causality

• Measures the relationship between variables

• Describes a population

• Manipulates variables

Which of the following is a key strength of quantitative research?

• Generalizability

• Lack of depth

• Flexibility

In quantitative research, the outcome measured is known as the:

• Independent variable

• Dependent variable

• Control variable

• Extraneous variable

A research method that tests the causal relationship between variables is:

• Descriptive research

• Correlational research

• Experimental research

• Qualitative research

In a study, the variable kept constant to ensure valid results is the:

• Independent variable
