    Study Notes

    Research Designs

    • Correlational research design is used to investigate the direction and magnitude of relationships among variables in a particular population.
    • Experimental research design is primarily concerned with cause and effect relationships in studies that involve manipulation and measurement.
    • In experimental research, participants are randomly selected for the treatment group.

    Types of Research Designs

    • One-group pretest-posttest design belongs to the quasi-experimental design category.
    • True experimental design is distinguished from quasi-experimental design by the random assignment of participants to treatment or control groups.

    Cross-Sectional Survey Design

    • Data is collected at a single point in time in cross-sectional survey design.

    Correlational Research

    • Correlational research design is used to investigate the association between senior high school students’ use of social media and their attention span in class.
    • Correlational research design is chosen for the study because it allows for the investigation of relationships between variables without manipulation.
    • Correlational research involves identifying patterns of relationships between variables, and it is appropriate for this study because it does not require manipulating social media use.

    Sampling Techniques

    • Stratified sampling involves selecting subgroups in the same proportion as they exist in the population.
    • Convenience sampling involves selecting a group of individuals who are conveniently available for study.
    • Purposive sampling involves selecting a sample based on prior information believed to provide the needed data.
    • Cluster sampling involves selecting groups or clusters of subjects rather than individuals.
