Across
  1. 3. A specific value of a variable
  2. 4. Pertaining to a cause-effect relationship
  3. 11. Some type of event, program, or treatment
  4. 14. Any entity that can take on different values
  5. 15. two things are synchronized
  6. 16. The numerical representation of some object
  7. 21. Take place at several points in time
  8. 23. If your prediction specifies a direction, the null hypothesis automatically includes both the no-difference prediction and the prediction that would be opposite in direction to yours
  9. 24. A specific statement of prediction stating what you expect happen in your study
  10. 26. Used to discuss the quality of various conclusions you might reach based on a research project
  11. 29. Uses two or a few waves of measurement
  12. 30. knowledge
  13. 31. Based on, concerned with, or verifiable by observation or experience rather than theory or pure logic
Down
  1. 1. The attribute of a variable
  2. 2. A type of systematic investigation that is empirical in nature and is designed to contribute to
  3. 5. Moving from specific observations to broader generalizations and theories
  4. 6. The variable that is affected by the independent variable
  5. 7. A system for ensuring the accuracy and methodological integrity of published research articles
  6. 8. Uses statistical methods to combine the results of similar studies quantitatively in order to allow general conclusions to be made
  7. 9. Works from the more general to the more specific
  8. 10. The hypothesis that describes the remaining possible outcomes
  9. 12. The systematic effort to move research from initial discovery to practice and ultimately to impacts on our lives
  10. 13. hypothesis When your prediction does not specify a direction
  11. 17. A cause-effect relationship
  12. 18. Tests a discovery under increasingly controlled conditions in real-world contexts
  13. 19. A systematic compilation and written summary of all of the literature published in scientific journals that is related to a research topic of interest
  14. 20. Implies that high values on one variable are associated with low values on the other
  15. 22. High values on one variable are associated with high values on the other, and low values on one are associated with low values on the other
  16. 25. Uses many waves of measurement (more than 20)
  17. 27. Whatever entity you are analyzing in your study
  18. 28. A specific statement of prediction
