I. True or False.
1. Data collection is done after the problem is defined.
2. Qualitative research involves the process of objectively collecting and analyzing
numerical data to describe, predict, or control variables of interest.
3. The general references section includes scientific dictionaries, handbooks,
almanacs which contain information that has been condensed from primary
publications.
4. Research can be conducted without a problem.
5. The hypothesis is a statement that addresses or answers the question.
6. Research design is the framework of a study.
7. Research objectives clearly describe the target of the research.
8. Quantitative method of data collection involves interviews or focus group
discussions.
9. Creating a research design means making decisions about your overall research
objectives and approach.
10. The goals of qualitative research are to test causal relationships between
variables, make predictions, and generalize results to wider populations.
11. A research design is a strategy for answering your research question using
empirical data.
12. In an explanatory research design, the researcher starts with a general idea and
uses this as a medium to identify issues, that can be the focus for future research.
13. Probability sampling is a method wherein each member of the population has the
same probability of being a part of the sample.

II. Multiple choice.

1. Which section contains collections of clippings from pamphlets, magazines, newspapers, brochures
about timely topics?

A. card catalogue C. periodical

B. computer D. vertical file

2. Which section allows researchers to access information through the internet?

A. card catalogue C. periodical

B. computer D. vertical file
3. It is a method used to gather numerical information or measurements that can be used to describe and
analyze variables

A. Purposive method C. Quantitative method
B. Qualitative method D. Snowball method
4. It is the data obtained from test models run by computers.
A. derived C. observational
B. experimental D. simulation-based
5. It is the data obtained through the conduct of a well-planned protocol.
A. derived C. observational
B. experimental D. simulation-based
6. This design enables a researcher to set a strong foundation for exploring his ideas, choosing the right
research design, and finding variables that are important for the analysis.
A. Descriptive C. Exploratory
B. Experimental D. Evaluation
7. This research focuses more on the “what” of the research subject than the “why” of the research subject.
A. Descriptive C. Exploratory
B. Experimental D. Evaluation
8. It is often used as a pre-cursor to more quantitative research designs with the general overview giving
some valuable pointers as to what variables are worth testing quantitatively
A. Descriptive C. Exploratory
B. Experimental D. Evaluation
9. This is quite extensive as it measures the effectiveness of a program.
A. Descriptive C. Exploratory
B. Experimental D. Evaluation
10. This research allows the researcher to control the situation. In so doing, it allows researchers to answer
the question, “What causes something to occur?”
A. Descriptive C. Exploratory
B. Experimental D. Evaluation
11. This research design seeks to discover if two variables are associated or related in some way, using
statistical analysis, while observing the variable.
A. Correlational C. Exploratory
B. Descriptive D. Evaluation
12. This research design seeks to explain the subject matter being researched and tries to answer the
question of what, how, and why.
A. Experimental C. Exploratory
