Assessing and Enhancing Research Design Validity
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page paper discussing descriptive research design. Research in education is unique among disciplines employing empirical methods in that it so frequently addresses issues that are mutable according to populations, administrative structure, external societal conditions or other qualities. Well-designed research can stand as relevant for decades, but lesser efforts may or may not be useful in practice at any time. The purpose here is to evaluate the methodology described in this paper, evaluating it on several points. Those points include internal and external validity, construct validity and statistical conclusion validity. Bibliography lists 1 source.
