- 3Response categories/response options refer to...The list of possible answers to a question or statement.
- 4Open-ended questionsRespondent provides own answer to questions
- 5Closed-ended questionsRespondent answers are limited to the list provided by the researchers
- 6SurveyDoes not establish cause and effect (disadvantage)
independent variable is measured as it occurs naturally (advantage) - 7ExperimentEstablishes cause and effect (advantage)
Independent variable is manipulated
(Is artificial) (disadvantage) - 8Response rates and cost for: In-person, telephone, self-administeredIn-person has highest response rate, is most expensive
Self-administered has lowest response rate, is least expensive - 9Exhaustive response questions...Include all possible responses that might be expected (closed-ended questions)
- 10Mutually exclusive response questions...No more than one category should apply to a respondent (closed-ended questions)
- 11Contingency questionsWhether or not contingency questions are asked (is contingent on) the responses to a different question
- 12Matrix questionsA set of questions that share answer choices (ex: extremely important, important, somewhat important, somewhat unimportant, unimportant).
Ideal when several questions or statements have the same response categories - 13Response rate# of people who participate (divided by)
the number of eligible people in the sample
(denominator includes people who couldn't get ahold of, people who refuse, and people who participate) - 14Importance of double-blind in experiments(Neither the subject nor the experimenters know who is in the experimental group and who is in the control group)
