Study Notes
Practical Research 2 - Quarter 2 - Module 1: Quantitative Research Methodology
- Quantitative Research Definition: The science of collecting, tabulating, analyzing, and interpreting numerical or quantitative data.
- Quantitative Research Variables: Quantitative studies manipulate the independent variable to measure the changes in the dependent variable.
- Quantitative Research Groups: Grade 12 students can ask Grade 11 students to gather relevant data about certain topics (canteen, facilities, services), this is collecting data.
- Processing Data: Encoding survey respondent answers into spreadsheets is data processing.
- Quantitative Research Study Designs: There are various quantitative research designs. Some common designs include correlational, descriptive survey, quasi-experimental, and true experimental, which are discussed in detail in the following parts of the module.
- Quantitative Research Methodology Components:
- Research Design: An overall strategy for data collection and analysis with defined components.
- Participants/Population Description: Identifying the individuals/groups involved.
- Sampling Techniques: The methods used to select participants from a larger population.
- Instrumentation/Instruments: Tools used to collect data.
- Data Collection Procedures: Detailing the steps, actions and processes for gathering the information.
- Data Analysis/ Statistical Treatment: Techniques used to interpret data.
- Principles of Research Design:
- Replication: Repeating the study to verify results by using more study participants to increase reliability.
- Local Control: Keeping extraneous variables comparable across different groups, for example, all subjects should have the same qualities
- Randomization: Reducing bias by randomly assigning study participants to different groups.
- Controlling Extraneous Variables: Ensuring that factors outside of the independent variable don't influence the results.
- Descriptive Research Designs: Studies the present state or condition of subjects/variables without altering them. Used to investigate current situations/patterns.
- Correlational Studies: Explore the relationship between two or more variables. Examining the extent to which variables are related.
- Experimental Studies: Determine cause-and-effect relationships by manipulating one or more variables (independent). Randomly assigned groups to see if the cause (dependent variable) produces the effect (independent variable)
- Quasi-Experimental Studies: Involve manipulation of the independent variable, but participants may not be randomly assigned to groups. Useful when random assignment isn't possible.
- Causal-Comparative Studies: Explore cause-and-effect relationships when manipulation isn't possible. Investigating the effect of past occurrences on the present. Common in education, social sciences and market research.
- Research Process Steps: Data collection, investigation, procedure used, hypothesis testing or null hypothesis
