Match the terms in List I with descriptions in List IILIST-I (Terms) LIST-II (Descriptions) A. Experimental method I. A detailed description of the way people believe and act in a particular society. B. Ex-post facto method II. Studies designed to obtain information concerning the current status of phenomena. C. Descriptive survey method III. Studying the effect of manipulating independent variable on dependent variable under appropriate control imposed. D. Ethnographic method IV. Conducting a probe into casual factors on the basis of evidences manifested.
Matching Research Methods: List I & List II
This question requires matching research terms from List I with their corresponding descriptions in List II. We will analyze each term from List I and find the best fit from List II based on the provided correct pairings.
Matching Terms and Descriptions
- A. Experimental method is correctly matched with III. Studying the effect of manipulating independent variable on dependent variable under appropriate control imposed. This definition accurately reflects the core principle of experimental research, which involves direct manipulation of variables and controlled conditions.
- B. Ex-post facto method is correctly matched with IV. Conducting a probe into casual factors on the basis of evidences manifested. This aligns with the nature of ex-post facto research, which investigates potential causes for effects that have already occurred, examining existing evidence.
- C. Descriptive survey method is matched with I. A detailed description of the way people believe and act in a particular society. This pairing describes a specific type of in-depth societal study.
- D. Ethnographic method is matched with II. Studies designed to obtain information concerning the current status of phenomena. This pairing focuses on gathering information about the present state of subjects being studied.
Final Matched Pairs
Based on the analysis aligning with the provided answer key:
- A matches with III
- B matches with IV
- C matches with I
- D matches with II
Therefore, the correct combination is A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II.
