KINDS OF QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH 1. Descriptive Research Non-experimental; does not manipulate variables, describes patterns of data in percentages, mean, median, and mode. * how many hours senior high school spend in social media

KINDS OF QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH 2. Correlational Research determines relationship between two variables without necessarily investigating the causal reasons underlying them – it is also concerned with the extent of relationship: positive or negative; high, moderate, or low relationship. * if the pre-board examination results can be used to predict performance in the Licensure Examination for Teachers (LET), then the higher the pre board grade, most likely be the score on the LET.

KINDS OF QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH 4. Survey Research - is used to gather information from groups of people by selecting and studying samples chosen from a population it may be done in various ways like face to face, phone, mail and online. If the pre-board examination results can be used to predict performance in the Licensure Examination for Teachers (LET), then the higher the pre board grade, most likely be the score on the LET.

KINDS OF QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH 5. Causal-Comparative Research -- It is also known as ex post facto (after the fact) research. It derives conclusion from observations and manifestations that already occurred in the past and now compared to some dependent variables. A researcher is interested in how weight influences stress-coping level of adult.

KINDS OF QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH 6. Experimental Research -Utilizes scientific method to test cause-and-effect relationships

KINDS OF QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH 6. Experimental Research -Utilizes scientific method to test cause-and-effect relationships under conditions controlled by the researcher. True Experimental Design Where: Experimental Group R O 1 Control Group R O 1 R O 2 = randomly sampled individuals in group O 1 = pre-test (before treatment) X X = treatment or intervention O 2 = post-test (after treatment)
