Practical Research 2
Check Your Understanding

A. Survey design. This quantitative design involves collecting

information which is usually gathered from large groups of people.
e.g. one shot survey, which is administered to a sample of people at
a set point in time

B. Correlational design. This quantitative design measures the

relationship between two variables without the researcher controlling
either of them. e.g. finding out if working hours are related to
mental health

C. Ex-post facto design. This quantitative design, unlike the

correlational design, attempts to establish cause-effect
relationships within the variables. e.g. the effect of taking
multivitamins on a student's school absenteeism.

D. Normative design. The results of this study should be compared

with the norm. e.g. an organization that wishes to test the skills of
its employees. The result of this test is compared with the norm of
each role.

E. Comparative design. This quantitative design essentially compares

two groups in an attempt to draw a conclusion about them. e.g.
Researchers attempt to identify and analyze similarities and
differences between groups, and these studies are most often cross-
national, comparing two separate people groups.

F. Quasi-Experimental design. This quantitative design cause-effect

relationships between independent and dependent variables but does
not rely on random assignment. e.g. the impact of a new psychological
therapy on patients with depression.

A. Probability and non-probability sampling

Probability sampling involves random selection, allowing you to make
statistical inferences about the whole group. Non-probability
sampling involves non-random selection based on convenience or other
criteria, allowing you to easily collect initial data.

B. Simple random and stratified sampling

Simple random sampling involves the whole population, which means
that's every member of the population, and has equal chance of being
selected. Stratified sampling involves dividing the population into
subpopulations that may differ in important ways. It allows you draw
more precise conclusions by ensuring that every subgroup is properly
represented in the sample.

C. Cluster and Multi-stage sampling

In cluster sampling, a population in a sample is divided into
clusters in which a researcher can now randomly choose from. A
researcher can take this further and now randomly select individuals
from the chosen clusters. This is known as multi-stage sampling.

D. Convenience and purposive sampling

A convenience sample simply includes the individuals who happen to be
most accessible to the researcher. A purposive sample technique uses
the researcher's judgement to select a sample that is most useful to
the purposes of the research.

E. Quota and snowball sampling

Quota sampling involves dividing a population into groups which is
based on researcher's judgment, then samples are taken from those
groups to meet a quota. Snowball sampling involves research
participants to take more part in a researcher's research process,
recruiting other participants for a test or study.

what c0nclusions
have i drawn based
on the lessons
presented?

A researcher must really understand what are the

different research designs and sampling methods.

What other concepts how will i apply

I want to explore the concepts i
more after have learned in
accomplishing this my day to day
module? living?
Go more in-depth into each research By trying to explore more things and
design and sampling by doing
method/technique. the things that truly interest me.

What learnings
What are the positive
have I found from
attitudes and values I
this module?
developed from this
module?
The importance of choosing the
appropriate research design and with it, Patience and hard work. To embrace difficulties and try to
the sampling method/technique. learn from your mistakes so you do better next time you
face them again.
