Term	Description
Research methods	approaches that social scientists use for investigating the answers to questions.
Quantitative methods	methods that seek to obtain information about the social world that is already in or can be converted to numeric form.
Qualitative methods	methods that attempt to collect information about the social world that cannot be readily converted to numeric form.
Deductive approach	a research approach that starts with a theory, forms a hypothesis, makes empirical observations, and then analyzes the data to confirm, reject, or modify the original theory.
Inductive approach	a research approach that starts with empirical observations and then works to form a theory.
Correlation or association	simultaneous variation in two variables.
Causality	the notion that a change in one factor results in a corresponding change in another.
Reverse causality	a situation in which the researcher believes that A results in a change in B, but B, in fact, is causing A.
Dependent variable	the outcome that the researcher is trying to explain.
Independent variable	a measured factor that the researcher believes has a causal impact on the dependent variable.
Hypothesis	a proposed relationship between two variables.
Operationalization	the process of assigning a precise method for measuring a term being examined for use in a particular study.
Validity	the extent to which an instrument measures what it is intended to measure.
Reliability	likelihood of obtaining consistent results using the same measure.
Generalizability	the extent to which we can claim our findings inform us about a group larger than the one we studied.
Placebo	a simulated treatment given to a control group in an experimental study to factor out the effect of merely being in an experiment from the effect of the actual treatment under consideration.
Double-blind study	an experimental study where neither the subjects nor the researchers know who is in the treatment group and who is in the control (placebo) group.
Reflexivity	analyzing and critically considering our own role in, and effect on, our research.
Feminist methodology	a set of systems or methods that treat women's experiences as legitimate empirical and theoretical resources, that promote social science for women (think public sociology, but for a specific half of the public), and that take into account the researcher as much as the overt subject matter.
Population	an entire group of individual persons, objects, or items from which samples may be drawn.
Sample	the subset of the population from which you are actually collecting data.
Case study	an intensive investigation of one particular unit of analysis in order to describe it or uncover its mechanisms.

Survey	an ordered series of questions intended to elicit information from respondents.
Historical methods	research that collects data from written reports, newspaper articles, journals, transcripts, television programs, diaries, artwork, and other artifacts that date to a prior time period under study.
Comparative research	a methodology by which two or more entities (such as countries), which are similar in many dimensions but differ on one in question, are compared to learn about the dimension that differs between them.
Experimental methods	methods that seek to alter the social landscape in a very specific way for a given sample of individuals and then track what results that change yields; often involve comparisons to a control group that did not experience such an intervention.
Content analysis	a systematic analysis of the content rather than the structure of a communication, such as a written work, speech, or film.
Public sociology	the practice of sociological research, teaching, and service that seeks to engage a wide audience for a normative, productive end.

What term refers to the extent to which data produces consistent results?

Reliability means that the results obtained are consistent. Validity is the degree to which the researcher actually measures what he or she is trying to measure. Reliability and validity are often compared to a marksman's target.

What research measure provides consistent results?

Reliability refers to how consistently a method measures something. If the same result can be consistently achieved by using the same methods under the same circumstances, the measurement is considered reliable.

When a measurement or experiment produces consistent results it is said to be ?

Reliability refers to the consistency of a measure. 1 A test is considered reliable if we get the same result repeatedly.

What is the term that refers to a relationship in which one variable is connected to change in another variable?

Correlation is a statistical measure (expressed as a number) that describes the size and direction of a relationship between two or more variables. A correlation between variables, however, does not automatically mean that the change in one variable is the cause of the change in the values of the other variable.
