Applying Research to Inequality and Difference
1 Conducting interviews results in this kind of data. PRIMARY
2 Official statistics provide this kind of data. SECONDARY
3 Type of PO in which the researcher’s identity is not revealed to the group. COVERT
4 Birth and death rates are this kind of statistic. HARD
5 To explore people’s views on an issue, researchers sometimes use this type of group. FOCUS
6 The effect that a researcher may have on the subjects. HAWTHORNE
7 Functionalists claim that their kind of research is this. OBJECTIVE
8 A sampling method in which one respondent leads the researcher to another, and so on. SNOWBALL
9 A type of sampling in which each unit has a known and equal chance of selection. RANDOM
10 In-depth fieldwork carried out ‘on the ground’. ETHNOGRAPHIC
11 Researchers living as part of the group being studied may be in danger of doing this. GOING NATIVE
12 Type of question allowing only pre-set responses. CLOSED
13 Researchers should strive to avoid this. BIAS
14 Research into very sensitive areas may pose this type of problem. ETHICAL
15 Finding sufficient funding for a research project is an example of this type of problem. PRACTICAL
16 A new type of research taking advantage of the rise of social media. ONLINE
17 Large-scale surveys result in this kind of data. QUANTITATIVE
18 Using more than one method in research. TRIANGULATION
19 A technique that allows researchers quick access to all media content on a specific topic over a given period of time. RAPID EVIDENCE ASSESSMENT
20 Research carried out on the same group over a period of time. LONGITUDINAL
21 Diaries and letters are examples of these. PERSONAL DOCUMENTS
22 In-depth interviews will result in this kind of data. QUALITATIVE
23 Studies in which the respondent provides information, often anonymously, on particular types of 1incident, e.g. muggings, burglaries or domestic violence. SELF REPORT
24 Researchers often have to do this with a concept before planning their research. OPERATIONALISE
25 A 10-yearly national survey. CENSUS
26 Type of question allowing the respondent a free response. OPEN ENDED
27 Face-to-face in-depth interviewers will try to achieve this with their subjects. RAPPORT
