LONG QUIZ IN PRACTICAL RESEARCH 2
TEST 1. MULTIPLE CHOICE
Direction: Choose the letter of the correct answer. Encircle the letter of your answer.
1. It is any event that is observable, it requires the use of instrumentation to observe, record
or compile data concerning it.
a. Phenomenon c. Data
b. Variable d. Question
2. It is essentially about collecting numerical data to explain a particular phenomenon.
a. Qualitative Research c. Quasi-Experimental Research
b. Quantitative Research d. Survey research
3. This is where you will apply the four “W”. It can be also expressed as a hypothesis.
a. Observing and Explaining c. Analyzing the Information
b. Collection of Information d. Interpreting the Data
4. This is done with statistics. This is where you subject the data collected into statistical
analysis.
a. Observing and Explaining c. Analyzing the Information
b. Collection of Information d. Interpreting the Data
5. It is focused specifically on numerical information, also known as data.
a. Observing and Explaining c. Analyzing the Information
b. Collection of Information d. Interpreting the Data
6. It is one of the most common areas of measurement in applied social research. It
encompasses any measurement procedures that involve asking questions of respondents.
a. Survey Research c. Causal-Comparative Research
b. Correlational Research d. Experimental Research
7. It is a test or research for the relationships between two or more variables.
a. Survey Research c. Causal-Comparative Research
b. Correlational Research d. Experimental Research
8. It is also known as “ex post facto” research. To determine cause or consequences of
differences that already exist between or among groups of individuals.
a. Survey Research c. Causal-Comparative Research
b. Correlational Research d. Experimental Research
9. It is a systematic and scientific approach to research in which the researcher manipulates
one or more variables, controls and measures any change in other variables.
a. Survey Research c. Causal-Comparative Research
b. Correlational Research d. Experimental Research
10. This determines whether the independent variable made a difference in the study.
a. External Validity c. Threatening Validity
b. Internal Validity d. Normal Validity
11. It refers to the extent to which findings can be generalized or can be considered
representative of the population.
a. External Validity c. Threatening Validity
b. Internal Validity d. Normal Validity
12. A type of variable that is either a result of some force or is itself the force that causes a
change in another variable.
a. Based on Cause-and-Effect c. Based on Scales of Measurements
b. Based on the Value taken by the variable d. Based on Quantitative Data
13. It is where you measure dependent Variable that carried out depends on the type of
variable involved in the analysis.
a. Based on Cause-and-Effect c. Based on Scales of Measurements
b. Based on the Value taken by the variable d. Based on Quantitative Data
14. This is where numerical data can take a different value. It is a continuous variable and
discrete or discontinuous variable.
a. Based on Cause-and-Effect c. Based on Scales of Measurements
b. Based on the Value taken by the variable d. Based on Quantitative Data
15. A variable which is the “cause” or the factor that is being tested or manipulated.
a. Dependent Variable c. Controlled Variable
b. Independent Variable d. Extraneous Variable
16. It is the effect or observed reactions. These are factors which are there inherently and are
not changed or manipulated.
a. Dependent Variable c. Controlled Variable
b. Independent Variable d. Extraneous Variable
17. A variable that is kept constant in an experiment.
a. Dependent Variable c. Controlled Variable
b. Independent Variable d. Extraneous Variable
18. It is a ranking refers to order sequences.
a. Nominal c. Ratio
b. Interval d. Ordinal
19. Are numerical scales in which intervals have the same interpretation throughout.
a. Nominal c. Ratio
b. Interval d. Ordinal
20. Distinguishes a variable from all others by assigning a name or description.
a. Nominal c. Ratio
b. Interval d. Ordinal
Test II. True or False
Direction: Write T if the statement if true and if the statement is false, write the correct word or
term to make the statement true. Write your answer on the space provided before the number.
_____1. Maturation is a process of maturing which takes place in the individual during the
duration of the experiment.
_____2. Study findings cannot be generalized to the population about which information is
required.
_____3. Quantitative is Factual.
_____4. Qualitative Research answers only theories and hypothesis related to the problem on
hand.
_____5. The Ratio scale of measurement is the most informative scale. It is an interval scale
with the additional property that its zero position indicates.
