TYPES OF RESEARCH

DESIGNS
QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH DESIGN

• Involves the collection and analysis of numerical data to test hypotheses or answer
research questions. It is a type of research design that is used to test and measure the
relationship between variables using statistical techniques.
TYPES OF QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH DESIGN

-Experimental Research Design

-Non-Experimental Research Design

EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH DESIGN

• Is a quantitative research design that bases its research method on a scientific activity
called experiment, in which a test or examination of a thing under a manipulated or
controlled environment is done to deterline its validity or truthfullness.
2 TYPES OF EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH DESIGN

• 1. True Experimental Design

• 2. Quasi-Experimental Design
TRUE EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN

• What proves things as a true experimental design is its random selection of participants. It
is a bias-free selection that ensures objectivity of results. This design is the best way to
examine cauasal relationship
QUASI-EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN

• The term quasi means partly, partially or almost. Means a research with capacity to yield
findings that are seemingly or more or less true. Prone to bias caused by your purposive
rather than random selection of participants.
TYPES OF QUASI-EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN

• MATCHED COMPARISON GROUP DESIGN

-in this quasi-experimental design, instead of selecting participants for the control group,
you get a set of participants that shows close similarities with the experimental or treatment
group based on one or more important variables.
• TIME-SERIES QUASI-EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN
-your act of controlling the variables in this case is through multiple observations of the
subjects before and after the treatment or condition applied to the experimental group.
• COUNTER-BALANCED QUASI-EXPERIMENTAL DESIGM
control is applied to one group to examine the effects of all treatment and conditions to
controll variables.
• SINGLE-SUBJECT QUASI-EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN
-this design is used when the population is so large that u find it difficult to choose a grouo
to study.
 NON-EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH DESIGN

• Is a quantitative research design that is capable of giving qualitative and quantitative data,
but more on qualitative data.
TYPES OF NON-EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH
DESIGN
•DISCRIPTIVE – Depicts an image or picture of an individual or a group

•COMPARATIVE - States the differences or similarities between or among people, things,

objects, etc.

• CORRELATIVE – shows the extent and direction of variable relationships, that is,
whether a negative or positive relationship exsist between or among them
•SURVEY –describes the attitudes, preferences, views, feelings, opinions, and other
behavioral patterns of a big number of people for arriving at a certain conclusion about
societal concerns and issues
•EZ POST FACTO –translates itself into these english words, “that which is done
afterwards,” and has the purpose of deriving data from things that are by nature taking
place, so as to obtain explanations about past events
