Ordinal Level of Measurement00:55

Ordinal Level of Measurement

22.7K
The way a set of data is measured is called its level of measurement. Correct statistical procedures depend on a researcher being familiar with levels of measurement. For analysis, data are classified into four levels of measurement—nominal, ordinal, interval, and ratio.
Data measured using an ordinal scale are similar to nominal scale data, but there is one major difference. The ordinal scale data can be ordered. An example of ordinal scale data is a list of the top five national parks...

Archival Research

15.9K
Some researchers gain access to large amounts of data without interacting with a single research participant. Instead, they use existing records to answer various research questions. This type of research approach is known as archival research. Archival research relies on looking at past records or data sets to look for interesting patterns or relationships. For example, a researcher might access the academic records of all individuals who enrolled in college within the past ten years and...

Naturalistic Observations

15.3K
If you want to understand how behavior occurs, one of the best ways to gain information is to simply observe the behavior in its natural context. However, people might change their behavior in unexpected ways if they know they are being observed. How do researchers obtain accurate information when people tend to hide their natural behavior? As an example, imagine that your professor asks everyone in your class to raise their hand if they always wash their hands after using the restroom. Chances...

Data Validation01:03

Data Validation

4.8K
Data validation is an essential part of a comprehensive assessment. Validation is confirming or verifying and opening the door to gathering more assessment data as it clarifies vague or unclear data. The process of checking and verifying the collected information is called data validation. The primary purpose of data validation is to ensure data is as free from error, bias, and misinterpretation as possible.
Nursing assessment guides are generally based on holistic models rather than medical...

Ethics in Research

22.9K
Today, scientists agree that good research is ethical in nature and is guided by a basic respect for human dignity and safety. However, this has not always been the case. Modern researchers must demonstrate that the research they perform is ethically sound.

Nominal Level of Measurement

The way a set of data is measured is called its level of measurement. Correct statistical procedures depend on a researcher being familiar with levels of measurement. Not every statistical operation can be used with every set of data. For analysis, data are classified into four levels of measurement—nominal, ordinal, interval, and ratio.
The data that cannot be measured but can be grouped into categories fall under the nominal level of measurement. Data that is measured using a nominal...

Area of Science:

  • Social Psychology
  • Scientific Research Values

Background:

  • Motives influencing researchers' attitudes and decisions are complex.
  • Existing literature on personal, work, and scientific work values provides a foundation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To conceptualize the range of motives influencing researchers' attitudes, decisions, and actions.
  • To develop a comprehensive framework of academic research values.

Main Methods:

  • Integrated theoretical insights from value theory and existing literature.
  • Conducted interviews and a survey with 255 participants.
  • Developed a taxonomy of academic research values.

Main Results:

  • Proposed 246 academic research value items.
  • Organized these items into 11 dimensions and 34 sub-themes.
  • Related the conceptualization to existing work and suggested future scale development.

Conclusions:

  • A better understanding of researchers' values can improve science careers.
  • This framework can attract diverse talent to science.
  • Elucidates mechanisms behind exemplary and questionable scientific practices.
