When researchers are interested in examining a problem using a scientific approach, it is said that
they are doing a (1.) S A R R E E C H. The people who are being studied are called (2.) B U J E C T S. The
person who oversees the research is called the (3.) P R I N C E L I P investigator. The building blocks of
theories are called (4.) C E P C O N T S.
An abstract generalization that presents a systematic representation about relationships among
phenomena is called a (5.) H E R O Y T. The concepts that are studied are called (6.) B A R I A L E V. The
concept that is being studied that usually that usually indicates the influence or cause is called the (7.) D E N
T I N P E E N D variable. The concept that the researcher is most interested in understanding is called the
(8.) T E E N N P E D D variable. Variables that may influence or contaminate the data are called (9.) E O U
T S X A E R N variables. If the group that is being studied is very different or varied, the group is said to be
(10.) G E N E S H E R O T E O U while groups that are very similar are called (11.) H O O M N E E G O U
S groups. When
studying variables, definitions must be clarified. A variable such as anxiety may be defined as a feeling of
uneasiness; this is called a (12.) C E P T A L C U O N definition. To measure anxiety, the State-Traite
Anxiety Scale might be used.
A (13.) S Y S I T H E P H O is a statement written by the researcher that states the relationship
among or between variables. There are two major categories for research designs. One design, the (14.) Q U
A I N T V A I E T T approach uses data that has numerical representation or values. The second design,
(15.) Q U A I L V E A T T I, uses narrative data. (16.) D E D U C E V I T reasoning is the basis for
quantitative approach. The bond or connection between two variables is called a (17.) O R I E N T A L H I
P S. Research that is conducted to generate knowledge that influences or improves practice is called (18.) D
E A L I P P research. Research that tests theories is known as (19.) A S C I B research.
