the outcome variable
Answer: MULTIPLE REGRESSION

No need to be nervous, no need to be scared, you’re going to do well, you’re prepared. 2

record behavioral patterns.
Answer: ETHNOGRAPHY
28. To understand the general characteristics or opinions of a group of people.
Answer: SURVEY

Answer: DATA ANALYSIS PLAN
33. These are titles of the rows in a table.
Answer: STUBS
34. It is rarely to use. In effect, they supplement the title of a table if required.
Answer: FOOTNOTES

Answer: HEADNOTES
38.  It explains the specific feature of the table which is not self-explanatory.
Answer: FOOTNOTES
39. _________ expressed in numbers and graphs and is analyzed through statistical methods.
Answer: QUANTITATIVE DATA
40. _________ expressed in words and analyzed through interpretations and categorizations.
Answer: QUALITATIVE DATA

Additional Reviewer
There are three main methods of presenting such information:
1. Textual presentation – your data can be presented using phrases, paragraphs, or sentences with
numbers to describe the given data. It also highlights significant data and supplements the tabular or
graphical presentation.
2. Tabular presentation – your data will be organized and presented through a table. This is one of the
most popularly used forms of presentation of data as data tables are simple to prepare and read.
3. Graphical presentation – a way of analyzing numerical data.

Line Graphs
- Used to display the continuous data and it is useful for predicting the future events over time.

Histograms 

- The graph that uses bars to represent the frequency of numerical data that are organised into intervals.
Since all the intervals are equal and continuous, all the bars have the same width.

Line Plot

- It shows the frequency of data on a given number line. ‘ x ‘ is placed above a number line each time
when that data occurs again.

Frequency Table 

- The table shows the number of pieces of data that falls within the given interval.

No matter how hard it is right now, think what the result will make you feel. 4
