What Is Multiple Methods Of Collecting Data?

• There is no way of telling how much thought a respondent has put in

The type of data the author collected were questionnaires that were given to the participants of the study to obtain demographic data on each participant’s age, race, marital status, education, and their knowledge of the

In order to provide the Australia Park Victoria with the appropriate data to solve its current crisis, the most appropriate method of data collection for this research is the qualitative method. According to Gay and Airasian (p 627) qualitative method is the collection of extensive data on various variables over a long time in a natural setting with an aim of acquiring insights not possible using other methods. It involves three different kinds of information collection: direct observation, in depth and open-ended interviews and written documents. Qualitative method involves use of random sampling and structured data collection instruments that fit different experiences. The method also enables the researcher to study the specific area of

The demographics questionnaire was designed specifically for this research. The following nine items were included:

The current study had 23 participants from Miami University took part in this experiment. Throughout the study, 2 participants were excluded from analyses, because they failed to follow task instructions or failed to complete the entire experiment. This left a final sample of 21 participants (16 female, 4 male, 1 do not wish to disclose). The mean age was 21.20 years (SD = 7.06). Most of the participants were white (n = 16) while the rest included Asian, Black/African American, and Bi- or Multiracial (n = 5). In addition, in the demographic section of the survey, participants answered their academic standing: freshman, sophomore, junior, senior, or other. The majority of the participants were juniors (n = 9) closely followed by

Information such as gender, ethnic identity, college standing, and age are collected. More than 50% of the sample are having

An equal amount of males and females were used (6 males and 6 females) to optimize accuracy in results. The sampling technique used was convenience sampling, experimenters used students at the school they were studying as participants were readily available without any attempt to make the sample representative of a population. Upon selecting participants, participants were randomly allocated to either the control or experimental group, however an equal amount of male and female participants were allocated to either group.

The survey will include statements about small and large classes, student behavior, student and teacher relationships and planning and instruction time. Each statement will be labeled 1-5 to calculate the responses. I will analyze the results of the survey by calculating the mode and median of the responses. The mode will be the determining factor of the findings/results of the study.

College student (N=20, 18 women, 2 men, Mage = 20.50 years, SD=1.19, age range: 19-23 years, 17 right handed, 2 left handed, 1 not reporting) were recruited from research methods Tuesday lab class. Participates were awarded a grade. Participates were randomly assigned to two different groups using convince sampling. The first group (n=10, 1 man, 9 women, Mage = 20.60 years, SD= .84, age range: 20-22, 9 right handed, 1 not reporting) is in the star group. Group two (n = 10, 1 man 9 women, Mage = 20.40, SD = 1.51, age range: 19-23, 8 right handed 2 left handed) is in the plus group. There were four mirror tracers so the group of 10 was spilt into 5 groups for each mirror tracer. All participates where treated ethically.

Regarding demographic information, white (n=4) and African American (n=3) participants made up 70% of the responses. Responses also included 20% from Hispanics and 10% Asians. Female participants outnumbered males 60% to 40%. The distribution of participants is comparable the university demographics.

One of the largest limitations to this survey is the use of a small (N=3) and convenient sample. This survey did not have a diverse population in terms of ethnicity, age, and social economic status. The respondents of the survey were all Hispanic/Latino females within the age group of 17-25 years; including the one male who took part in the qualitative survey/interview is also Hispanic/Latino and 21 years of age. Although all the students were employed and receive a working income, it is difficult to depict the respondent’s social economic status. It would be best to use a much larger sample; the survey could be administered to the rest of the university to collect more data. However, there would still be a limitation since the only diversity

Students of the class Introduction to Research Methods conducted two studies to collect data on the perception of scientists. The purpose of the two studies conducted was to examine the stereotypes of scientists of undergraduate Speech and Hearing Science majors, and whether the use of media has an influence on these stereotypes. Study one was a descriptive study that consisted of administering a Draw-A-Scientist test. This was done in order to understand the perceptions of scientists in a sample of Speech and Hearing Science majors at a large research university in the Midwest, and be able to compare the results to other literature. Study 2 was an experimental study, conducted to analysis the effect of a media stimulus on the perceptions of scientist. The goal of conducting two studies was to have the ability to compare the results of the descriptive study with the experimental study in order to determine the effects of the media and analyze certain stereotypic characteristics of a scientist.

The researchers made use of survey forms, answered by the College of Liberal Arts students of De La Salle University-Manila. The researchers personally approached students one by one. The students were asked to spare two minutes of their time to answer the survey. The respondents waited for the students to finish answering to assure the accomplishment of the surveys and for any clarifications. This was done only for a week.

In order to determine the possible impact an environment has on the frequency of bird vocalization, I will first be doing research on their respective habitats in order to determine the type of environment each of the birds inhabit. To do this I found recordings of the Cape-turtle Dove and the Red-eyed Dove on http://www.xeno-canto.org/ as it provides a map that indicates the locations where the recordings were taken from. I will then research the environments the recordings were taken from which are the Graaff Reinet and the Karoo, on https://www.sanparks.org/parks/tankwa/conservation/ff/vegetation.php, http://www.southafrica.co.za/south-africa-info-vegetation-zones.html, and
