Across
  1. 2. A hypothesis that states the direction of the difference or relationship (e.g., Group A will score higher than Group B)
  2. 4. A type of questionnaire question with fixed answers (e.g., Yes/No, scales) that produces quantitative data
  3. 8. An in-depth investigation of a single person, group, or event; uses multiple methods (triangulation) and is often longitudinal
  4. 9. A type of self-report with verbal questions
  5. 10. (variables) The process of clearly defining variables so they can be measured or manipulated in a study
  6. 11. Methods used to select participants from a population
  7. 14. The variable the researcher changes or manipulates in an experiment
  8. 16. A hypothesis that states there will be no difference or relationship between variables
  9. 17. A hypothesis that states there will be a difference or relationship but does not specify its direction
  10. 18. The use of multiple methods (e.g., interviews, observations, tests) in a case study to gather data
  11. 19. Numerical data; easy to analyse and objective but lacks depth
Down
  1. 1. The extent to which findings can be generalized to real-world settings (relating to task and environment)
  2. 2. The variable the researcher measures in an experiment (affected by the IV)
  3. 3. A type of questionnaire question with no fixed answers that produces qualitative data
  4. 5. Any variable other than the IV that could affect the DV; the goal is to control or eliminate it
  5. 6. Aspects of the environment (e.g., noise, lighting, researcher's behaviour) that can affect study results
  6. 7. A pre-determined list used in structured observations to record specific behaviors
  7. 12. Descriptive, worded data; rich and detailed but subjective and hard to analyse
  8. 13. Measures taken to keep variables constant to ensure any DV change is only due to the IV
  9. 15. A research method that studies the same participants over a long period of time (e.g., months, years)
