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.
