Practical Research 2

• Research Design refers to the entire process of planning and carrying out a research study (Choudhurg 2017). It is like the blueprint of your research study because it serves as the backbone of your research.
• Present. state the research design that you've chosen for your research
• Define. Give the meaning of the research design. Cite the reference of your data.
• Justify. Defend the relevance and appropriateness of your selected research design.
• Instrument is the generic term that researchers use for measurement device like survey, test, questionnaire, and many others.
• Instrumentation is the process of developing testing, and using the device.
• Questionnaire: A series of questions designed to elicit information, which is filled by all participants.

• Open Questions. allow people to express what they think in their own words.
• Rating Scale. Requires the respondents to rate their agreement or disagreement with a particular statement.
• What are the 3 types of questions in a questionnaire?

  Content Validity

  Criterion Validity
• measures the degree of consistency
