MELC: Distinguish technical terms used in research.

Activity 1: What is Research? Direction: Determine further the meaning and function of research by reading the paragraphs below. In
doing so, arrange the jumbled letters of some terms to understand research even better.
When researchers are interested in examining a problem using a scientific approach, it is said that they are doing a (1.) S A R R
E E C H. The people who are being studied are called (2.) B U J E C T S. The person who oversees the research is called the (3.) P
R I N C E L I P investigator. The building blocks of theories are called (4.) C E P C O N T S. An abstract generalization that
presents a systematic representation about relationships among phenomena is called a (5.) H E R O Y T. The concepts that are
studied are called (6.) B A R I A L E V. The concept that is being studied that usually that usually indicates the influence or cause
is called the (7.) D E N T I N P E E N D variable. The concept that the researcher is most interested in understanding is called the
(8.) T E E N N P E D D variable. Variables that may influence or contaminate the data are called (9.) E O U T S X A E R N
variables. If the group that is being studied is very different or varied, the group is said to be (10.) G E N E S H E R O T E O U
while groups that are very similar are called (11.) H O O M N E E G O U S groups. When studying variables, definitions must be
clarified. A variable such as anxiety may be defined as a feeling of uneasiness; this is called a (12.) C E P T A L C U O N
definition. To measure anxiety, the State-Traite Anxiety Scale might be used. A (13.) S Y S I T H E P H O is a statement written
by the researcher that states the relationship among or between variables. There are two major categories for research
designs. One design, the (14.) Q U A I N T V A I E T T approach uses data that has numerical representation or values. The
second design, (15.) Q U A I L V E A T T I, uses narrative data. (16.) D E D U C E V I T reasoning is the basis for quantitative
approach. The bond or connection between two variables is called a (17.) O R I E N T A L H I P S. Research that is conducted to
generate knowledge that influences or improves practice is called (18.) D E A L I P P research. Research that tests theories is
known as (19.) A S C I B research.
Activity 2: Puzzling Study Direction: Answer the crossword puzzle below by determining the research terms through the clues given
on the right.

Activity 3: Words Worth Knowing Directions: The thirty words included in the pool of words below come from specialized
areas. Categorize each to complete the table. Determine how many of these words you know well enough to use in your
writing and speaking. Then, use a dictionary to look up the meanings of words you do not know (10 words).
