Chapters 9-10 Activity
Across
- 2. This type of validity refers to how well one measure is correlated with an existing gold standard measure.
- 3. This type of validity relates to the degree to which the results of a study are generalizable to the real world.
- 4. Random sampling method in which every xth individual out of the entire list of potential subjects is selected for participation.
- 7. A type of sampling in which potential subjects are selected based on the ease of subject recruitment.
- 11. Is defined as the closeness of a measured value to the true value of what is being addressed.
- 13. This type of quantitative data involves a finite number of classifications for observations.
- 14. A type of nonrandom sampling. It entails potential subjects from a predetermined group to be sought out and sampled.
- 15. Random sampling method for dividing the individual members of the sampling frame into groups, or strata, based on specific subject characteristics.
Down
- 1. The characteristics that subjects have before they enroll in a study that may ultimately influence the results of the study.
- 5. In this type of blinding, participants, clinicians, data collectors, outcome adjudicators, and data analysts do not have access to details of group assignment.
- 6. This type of validity refers to whether a test or measurement instrument appears to measure what it is intended to measure.
- 7. Random sampling method of dividing the sampling frame into groups based on some common characteristics and then randomly selecting specific clusters to participate in the study out of all possible clusters.
- 8. This type of quantitative data is measured on a scale that can continuously be broken down into smaller increments.
- 9. In this type of blinding, neither the participants in the experiment nor the researcher knows who received the placebo/real treatment.
- 10. This type of quantitative data is just like categorical data, however the order of numeric classification is of consequence.
- 12. When discussing validity, these types of variables may result in false relationships.
- 15. In this type of blinding, participants in the experiment do not know if they are receiving the placebo or the real treatment.
