4
Quantitative Survey
Makes use of questionnaires that contain closed-ended questions with given answers for the respondents to choose from
New cards
5
Quantitative Interview
Makes use of standardized questions and structured interview formats. These interviews may take the forms of face-to-face interviews, telephone calls, or web-based interviews
New cards
6
Quantitative Observation
Involves following a structured procedure in observation to acquire reliable information for analysis.

7
Quantitative Observation
It involves the standardization of observed elements, which are put into numerical contexts making them measurable and quantifiable in nature.
New cards
8
Experiment
Involves manipulation of variables that test hypotheses under conditions which may be controlled or not.
New cards
9
Experiment
It takes the form of laboratory or field experiments.

10
Summarizing data
is one of the major steps to be done before data analysis and interpretation.
New cards
11
Summarizing data
It involves organizing and processing the raw data in preparation for conclusions and interpretations.
New cards
12
Textual summary
is summarizing through combining narrative forms and figures that support the data presented.
New cards
13
Tabular summary
makes use of tables consisting of rows and columns with headings and subheadings that represent the different variables represented by figures.
New cards
14
Graphical summary
makes use of visual tools such as graphs, charts, or figures which makes relationships of variables be easily identified.

15
Data Preparation
The researcher collates all the raw data gathered
New cards
16
Data Preparation
It primarily involves the process of aligning the data with the research questions of the research.
New cards
17
Data coding
is the process of transforming the collected data into numerical form which are commonly encountered in using surveys and interviews.
New cards
18
Data Processing and Encoding
The researcher may use different computer software, specifically statistical software, to encode and process data with a large scale of samples.
New cards
19
Data Validation
This involves rechecking all the data encoded and processed to validate and correct errors.
New cards
20
Data Presentation
The researcher summarizes the data through the use of the different forms of data summaries in quantitative research
New cards
21
Tabular presentations
may be in the form of raw data tables and analytic tables
New cards
22
raw data tables
serves as records of information and are usually constructed in the process of summarizing data
New cards
23
analytical tables
are constructed during or after the analysis of raw data
New cards
24
analytical tables
these tables are used for the narrative interpretation of the results
New cards
25
graphical presentation
may show patterns, shapes, and relationships between the data and the variables
New cards
26
Pie Chart
each division is used to represent the parts of a whole equal to 100%. it is usually used in presenting nominal types of data
New cards
27
Bar Chart
typically used to compare values and levels of data. It is usually used for nominal and ordinal types of data
New cards
28
Histogram
represents the distribution of data given a certain range. It is mostly used for interval and ratio types of data
New cards
29
Frequency Polygon
presents trends and patterns in data.
New cards
30
Frequency Polygon
Makes use of midpoints to represent values and frequencies connected by lines
New cards
31
Tabular presentations
presents data mainly in rows and columns wherein each represent the variables measured
