What This Module is About

As a researcher, it is important that you are knowledgeable about what type of data
collection technique to use for a certain type of quantitative research study you are planning
to pursue. The importance of data collection cannot be undermined since in the absence of
correctly collected data, your research questions can remain unanswered, or the testing of
research hypothesis is not possible.

This module gives an overview of factors to consider when choosing data collection
method. It also shows a brief description on the different instruments available, its
advantages and disadvantages, and guidelines on how to use the specific instrument
suitable to the research questions and or objectives. Additionally, you will be exposed to the
different statistical tool that you can possibly use to analyze the gathered data.

This is made simple and easy to understand yet contains the maximum and solid
knowledge necessary for you to be able to accomplish the Chapter 4 of your research study.
Furthermore, this module also contains examples and exercises for you to improve your
learning. For enrichment, learners may contact anytime their teacher through messenger,
FB, zoom, call or text at their own convenient time.

Lesson Data Collection Instruments
1
What’s In

Due to the COVID-19 global pandemic crisis, many are easily hook into sharing and
believing fake news without processing and verifying the source. Daily figures of these cases
are also gradually changing, creating misinformation and fear. People are anxious about
what is happening, and tensions are inevitable due to security and health threats. Therefore,
reliable sources of data and information are highly needed. The fundamental questions to
ask are: What is data? Why researchers collect data? How is data collected? Who needs the
collected data?

In this pandemic situation specifically, the following questions can be considered.


• How many Filipinos are positive of COVID-19?
• Does aspirin prevent the spread of COVID-19?
• How many percent of Filipinos are jobless when the lockdown began?
• How have the education sector embraced the new normal?

All these questions, and many more can be answered through data collection. As
taught in the previous lesson, a researcher begins by identifying the research problem. Once
the data gathering procedure has been implemented and data has been gathered, the next
thing to do is to analyze and interpret them. Data is obtained with the aid of data collection
instruments which will be the focus in this lesson.

What I Need to Know

Collecting data is the first step you need to perform before you proceed in writing your data
analysis and interpretation. Data collection is a systematic process of gathering relevant
information, observations, or measurements. Whether you are performing research for
academic purposes, government or business, data collection allows you to gain first-hand
knowledge and original insights into your research problem. While methods and aims may
differ between fields, the overall process of data collection remains largely the same. Before
you begin collecting data, you need to consider: (1) the aim of the research; (2) the type of
data that you will collect; and (3) the methods and procedures you will use to collect, store,
and process the data.
Quantitative research instruments comprise observation, questionnaires, test, and
interviews. On the other hand, data collection approaches for qualitative research usually
involve: (a) direct interaction with individuals on a one-to-one basis, (b) and or direct
interaction with individuals in a group setting.
When developing and utilizing a research instrument, the following steps are to be
considered:
1. Define the aim of your research (research question).
2. Choose your data collection method.
3. Plan your data collection procedures.
4. Collect and verify your data.
5. Present your findings.

What Is It

Research Instruments

Questionnaires

A questionnaire is a research instrument that consists of a set of questions that


aims to collect information from a respondent. A research questionnaire is typically a mix of
close- ended questions and open-ended questions. Open-ended, long-form questions offer
the respondent the ability to elaborate on their thoughts. The data collected from a data
collection questionnaire can be both qualitative as well as quantitative in nature. A
questionnaire may or may not be delivered in the form of a survey, but a survey always
consists of a questionnaire.

The terms survey and questionnaire have different meanings. A questionnaire is an


instrument used to collect data while a survey is a process of collecting, recording, and
analyzing data. Questionnaires can be structured, semi-structured, or unstructured.

In quantitative research, questionnaires use the following approaches: (1) scale


(usually Likert scale); and (2) conversion of responses into numerical values, e.g., strongly
as 5, agree as 4, neutral as 3, disagree as 2, and strongly disagree as 1.

5 CO_Q2_SHS Practical Research 2_Module 2


There are three structures of questionnaires:
1. Structured questionnaires employ closed-ended questions
2. Unstructured questionnaires, on the other hand, use open-ended
3. Semi-structured questionnaires are combinations of both the structured and
unstructured ones.

Advantages of Using Questionnaire


1. Bulk data can be gathered in less time.
2. Online survey is quick and cost-effective.
3. Less chance of bias.
4. Respondents can answer the questionnaire without revealing their identity.
5. Easy analysis and visualization

Disadvantages of Using Questionnaire


1. Questionnaires may not be returned on time.
2. Questionnaires may be lost.
3. Understanding and interpretation of the questions varies by the participants.
4. Participants may not be able to complete the required responses.
5. Emotions and feelings are hard to convey.
6. Participants’ answer may lack depth.

Guidelines in Using Questionnaires for Data Collection


1. Determine the data to be collected.
2. Determine the method to be used in administering the questionnaire such as
face-to-face or online method.
2. Divide your questionnaire into two or three parts.
a. Personal information. This section which contains background information of
the participants. (Names are optional)
b. Main section. This lists the specific questions or indicators.
c. Open-ended question section. This contains additional information that might
be needed. (This applied only for quantitative research)
3. Make sure to provide specific and clear directions for respondents in answering
the questionnaire.
4. Decide on the questionnaire structure, type of questions and response format.
Evaluate the questions and options and make sure that they are aligned with
specific research questions or objectives.
5. Decide on using simple terms, avoid negative statements, leading, biased, double
barred, or sensitive questions and make a brief, clear, and concise questionnaire.
6. Begin with the general questions first followed by the specific ones.
7. Predetermined responses should match the nature of the questions.
a. If the content is about quality, use quality (excellent, very good, good, poor)
Later, these responses will be translated into numerical values (e.g. five-point
Likert scale)
b. If questions are about frequency, use frequency (always, frequently,
sometimes, seldom, never)
c. If the content is about belief, use agreement (strongly agree , agree, neutral,
disagree, strongly disagree)
d. If the questionnaire is about behavior, use extent (very great extent, great
extent, moderate extent, small extent, none at all)
8. If possible, set an appointment before distributing the questionnaires.
9. Attach a cover letter to the questionnaire especially for agency connected
respondents.
10. Contact participants who did not to return the questionnaire.
11. Tally and encode the data immediately once you have collected them. Keep a
soft copy of your data.

6 CO_Q2_SHS Practical Research 2_Module 2


Tests

Tests are used for measuring various skills and types of behavior, personality,
achievement, performance, as well as for describing some characteristics. It is also used to
develop to measure specific knowledge, skill, or cognitive activity. There are two types of
tests used in quantitative research: standardized test and non-standardized test.

Standardized test is a test that is given to a group of people such as students or


professionals in a very consistent manner; meaning that the questions on the test are all the
same, the time given to each test-taker is the same, and the way in which the test is scored
is the same for all. It is considered as more reliable and valid. Examples are Licensure
Exam, Achievement test, College/University Entrance Exam, Personality Tests, IQ test and
the likes.

Non-standardized test is a test that allows for an assessment of an individual's


abilities or performances but doesn't allow for a fair comparison of one individual to another.
This test is very simple to use and may not be scored uniformly. It is administered to a
certain set of people.

Types of Test Questions

1. Recall Questions. It requires participants to recall information from memory (e.g., fill-
in-the blank test, identification test, enumeration test, etc.)
2. Recognition Questions. It allows participants to select from given choices the best or
correct choice (e.g., multiple-choice test, true or false test, yes or no test, etc.)
3. Open-ended Questions. It allows the participants more freedom in their responses,
expressing their thoughts and insights (e.g., essay writing tests and other
performance-based tests.

Here are elaborate types of test and examples:


1. RECALL TESTS
A. Identification- the participants will provide an answer to the question using simple
memory recall.
Example: What do you call an angle whose measurement is 90 degrees?
B. Enumeration- the participants will list down the answers or steps
Example: List down the steps in solving a problem.
C. Cloze Test – the participants will supply an answer to the blank spaces.
Example: The graph of a quadratic function is a .

2. RECOGNITION TESTS
A. Matching Type- the participants will match the answers from column A to column
B by drawing a line.
Example: Match the terminologies in Column A with their synonyms in Column B.
Column A Column B
Measurement is
1. Acute Angle A. 90 degrees
2. Right Angle B. less than 180 degrees but greater than 90
3. Obtuse Angle C. less than 90 degrees but greater than 0
B. Multiple Choice- the participants will choose the correct/best answer from the
given options.
Example: Which of the following does NOT belong to the group?
A. Acute Angle B. Right Angle
B. Obtuse Angle D. Depressed Angle
C. Dichotomous Type (True or False, Yes or No)- the participants will select only one
option either yes or no or true or false.
Example: Write TRUE on the space before each number if the statement is
correct and FALSE if it is incorrect.
1. 140 degrees angle is acute.
7 CO_Q2_SHS Practical Research 2_Module 2
3. OPEN-ENDED TESTS
A. Performance-based- the participants are expected to perform a given task.
Example: Create a video presentation showing the step-by-step process of
solving quadratic equations.
B. Non-performance based- the participants may answer orally or in a written
manner.
Example: Explain the mathematical procedures you apply to transform the
given quadratic equation to standard form.

Interviews

Quantitative interviews are sometimes referred to as survey interviews (structured


type) because they resemble survey-style question-and-answer formats where in a large
sample sized is used. It may be recorded, but because questions tend to be closed ended,
taking notes during the interview is less disruptive than it can be during a qualitative
interview.

If a quantitative interview contains open-ended questions, however, recording the


interview is advised. It may also be helpful to record quantitative interviews if a researcher
wishes to assess possible interview effect which means that the responses of the
participants may be affected by the behavior displayed by the researcher on the manner that
the questions are presented. This type of interview uses a rating scale or rubric and
responses are numerical.

Qualitative interviews are sometimes called intensive or in-depth interviews. These


interviews are informal, unstructured, semi-structured or focus group discussions (FGD). The
researcher has a particular topic about which he or she would like to hear from the
respondent, but questions are open ended and may not be asked in the same way or in
exactly the same order to each and every respondent.

In in-depth interviews, the primary aim is to hear from respondents about


what they think is important about the topic at hand and to hear it in their own words. So, no
rating scale or rubric is needed. Responses are non-numerical.

The questionnaire and quantitative interview are both highly structured, but here’s a
difference between the two:

In quantitative interviews, (1) the items are read to the participants; (2) participants
and researchers may ask questions; (3) helpful to blind or uneducated participants while in
questionnaires, (1) the participants read the questions and answer on their own; (2) the
participants and researchers may not ask further questions; (3) not useful to blind or
uneducated participants.

Observation

Observation is way of gathering data which involves systematically selecting,


watching, listening, reading, touching, and recording behavior and characteristics of living
beings, objects, or phenomena. Observations can be controlled, natural, or participant. It can
be used in quantitative research when the observable characteristics are quantitative in
nature (e.g. length, width, height, weight, volume, area, temperature, cost, level, age, time,
and speed).
Observation has greater flexibility in the observation method. However, observation
may lack participant validity and may be prone to the Hawthorne effect phenomenon
(when subjects of an experimental study attempt to change or improve their behavior simply
because it is being evaluated or studied). Furthermore, it is more exhausting and time-
consuming especially when observations need to be conducted for many years.

8 CO_Q2_SHS Practical Research 2_Module 2


Forms of Observation

i. Controlled observation is a form of observation where researchers watch


participants in a contained environment, such as a classroom or a laboratory. In a
controlled study, the researcher pre-determines and controls the study variables
and determines the location, the time, the participants, and the tools used to
complete the study. It is usually used in experimental research and is done under
a standard procedure. It provides more reliable data (obtained through structured
and well-defined process). Lastly, the observer performs a non-participant role (i.e.
does not interact with the participants).

i. Natural Observation is a form of observation that involves observing subjects in


their natural environment. It can be used if conducting lab research would be
unrealistic, cost-prohibitive, or would improperly affect the subject's behavior. It is
carried out in a non-controlled setting. It has greater ecological validity (i.e.
flexibility of the findings to be generalized to real-life contexts Its major limitation is
its strength to establish a causal relationship due to the presence of extraneous
variables which can affect the behavior of the participants

ii. Participant Observation is a form of observation wherein the researcher


becomes a complete observer or a participant in the study through the experience
of spending time with a group of people and closely observing their actions,
speech patterns, and norms, which in turn the researcher can gain an
understanding. It allows the observer to become a member of the group or
community that the participants belong to. It can be performed covertly (i.e.,
participants are not aware of the purpose behind the observation. It can be done
also overtly, wherein participants know the intention or objectives of the
observation

Different Roles of a Researcher during a Participant Observation

1. Complete Observer

This is a detached observer where the researcher is neither seen nor noticed by
participants. It’s one way of minimizing the Hawthorne Effect as participants are more likely
to act natural when they don’t know they’re being observed.

2. Complete Participant

This is a fully embedded researcher, almost like a spy. Here the observer fully
engages with the participants and partakes in their activities. Participants aren’t aware that
observation and research is being conducted, even though they fully interact with the
researcher.

3. Observer as Participant
Here the researcher is known and recognized by the participants and in many cases,
the participants know the research goals of the observer. There is some interaction with the
participants, but the interaction is limited. The researcher’s aim is to play a neutral role as
much as possible.

4. Participant as Observer
Here the researcher is fully engaged with the participants. She is more of a friend or
colleague than a neutral third party. While there is full interaction with participants, they still
know that this is a researcher.

Ethical Considerations in Data Collection of Quantitative Research


Ethical considerations should always be practiced when conducting research.
Researchers must ensure that respondents/ participants are treated fairly and properly
especially during data collection. Consent form is a tool to be used that respects the right of
every participant to be informed and to make voluntary participation during the data
gathering.
Informed Consent Form is a document whose intent is that human participants can
enter research freely (voluntarily) with full information about what it means for them to take
part, and that they give consent before they participate the research. This form must be
accomplished before gathering data from the participants. It must be signed both by the
researcher and the participant as they agree to the conditions during the actual conduct of
the data collection process. It usually contains the following:

Lesson Data Presentation and
2 Interpretation

What’s In

In the previous lesson, you were presented with options as to how you will gather
your data. Once the data are collected, you need to encode and organized them for
systematic purposes. This will be the focused of this lesson. In this process, you will need to
edit, code, tabulate and summarize information through graphs and tables for presentation
and interpretation purposes. The process also allows the removal of unnecessary
information.

Data presentation and analysis is one of the most essential part in your research
study. An excellent data presentation can be potential for winning the hearts of the panelists,
clients, or simply the readers. No matter how good your data, if it is not well presented, you
will not be able to earn the preferences of those whom you are trying to persuade. Good
data presentation matters.

What I Need to Know

The following are the significant steps you need to take note in preparing and writing
your data analysis after gathering the data:

(1) encode and organize your data for analysis according to the data asked by your
research questions;
(2) use your data for statistical tests you have identified in Module 4. You may ask
assistance from your statistics and research teacher;
(3) present the result in tabular or graphical form appropriate for your data and
research purpose;
(4) write the interpretation for each table or graph highlighting the significant results
and its implications;
(5) support your findings from relevant literature and studies you have cited in the
Chapter 2 of your research paper; and
(6) edit the grammatical and typographical errors in your interpretation. You may use
www.grammarly.com to edit your work.
(7) Submit your work using the format given to you. Remember the institutional
format of your school.

Techniques in Data Processing

Remember to organize your data based on your research questions. The data
processing involves three actions: editing, coding, and tabulation.

Editing raw data is the first step in analysis. Editing detects errors and omissions,
corrects them whatever possible. Editor’s responsibility is to guarantee that data are –
accurate; consistent with the intent of the questionnaire; uniformly entered; complete; and
arranged to simplify coding and tabulation.

19 CO_Q2_SHS Practical Research 2_Module 2


Coding refers to the process of assigning numerals or other symbols to answers so
that responses can be put into a limited number of categories or classes. Such classes
should be appropriate to the research problem under consideration. Coding is a process
wherein the collected data are categorized and organized. It is usually done in qualitative
research. In quantitative research, coding is done to assign numerical value to specific
indicator especially if it is qualitative in nature. This numerical value will be useful when you
are going to analyze your data using statistical tool. Just make sure that the categories
created are aligned with your research questions. Consider the following example.

Students’ reasons for lack of motivation are


qualitative in nature. The researcher will then
assign numerical values. Data also shows
Tired that this will be summarized using frequency
and percentage distribution.

Sleepy Bored Assigned values:

Sleepy – 1
Student's
Lack of Tired – 2
Motivation Bored – 3

Tabulation is a system of processing data or information by arranging it into a table. With


tabulation, numeric data is arrayed logically and systematically into columns and rows, to aid
in their statistical analysis. The purpose of tabulation is to present a large mass of
complicated information in an orderly fashion and allow viewers to draw reasonable
conclusions and interpretations from them. In many studies, table is used to do this process.
Tabulation can be done manually or electronically using MS Excel. The following digital tools
can be used to tabulate your data like MS Excel, Minitab, or other digital tools. Correct
arrangement of your data will be helpful during actual data analysis.

20 CO_Q2_SHS Practical Research 2_Module 2


Look at the latest figures gathered by the Philippine Statistics Authority from a conducted
census. Try to answer the questions that follow on how you are going to interpret the data.

1. How is the data presented?

2. If you will be asked to present again the data, how will you arrange and label it? Use the
space to draw your presentation of the data.

5. Write 3-5 sentences explanation of the data presented.

21 CO_Q2_SHS Practical Research 2_Module 2


What Is It

The next step after editing, coding, and tabulating the data is to present them into
graphical or visual presentation called non-prose materials. The purpose of presenting the
data in this way is to make the outlined of the results more presentable. Non-prose materials
are composed of graphs, bars, tables, charts, diagrams, illustrations, drawings, and maps. .

In quantitative research, tables and graphs are usually used. Standard format in
presenting the data into a table or a graph like its title, labels, contents, and many more can
be followed as well when school institutional format is not provided or identified. You may
visit APA, CMOS, or MLA on how to do so.

Tables

Table helps summarize and categorize data using columns and rows. It contains
headings that indicate the most important information about your study.

To interpret the tables, one needs to do the following:

1. Analyze the connections among the details of the headings.


2. Check the unusual pattern of the data and determine the reason behind these.
3. Begin with the table number and the title.
4. Present the significant figures (overall results, high and low values, the unusual
pattern).
5. Refrain from repeating again what’s inside the table.
6. Support your findings with literature and studies that confirms or contrasts your
results.
7. Establish the practical implications of the results. This will add value to your
research findings.
8. End with a brief generalization.

Cont.
Table 1 shows the summary of the overall adjectival rating in frequency and percentage of
students in their pretest in Pre-calculus at Gulayan National High School for S.Y. 2019-2020.
Results reveal that 66% of the students have satisfactory rating. Only 5% have outstanding rating.
Overall, the data showed that the students at Gulayan National High School have fair ratings
based on their pretest scores. This implies that most of the students do not have prior mastery on
the concepts of this subject. Hence, teacher is expected to apply teaching strategies that will
increase students’ concepts of the subject. This result is supported by Ignacio (2016) that pretest
scores especially if it is valid and reliable shows prior knowledge of the learners of the subject
matter.

Sample 2

Looking at Table 4, there is a significant relationship between the classroom interaction that facilitates
positive discipline and sense belonging (r (39 = .973, p = 0.000). The feeling of being safe and welcome in
school is significantly related to how the teachers manage classroom interaction. This result is supported by
the early studies on classroom management by Brophy and Avertson (1976) that though variety of teaching
behaviors affect effective teaching; classroom management appeared to be one of the most critical aspects
as viewed by students.

Graphs

Graphs are visual representations which focuses on how a change in one variable
affects to another. They are used to organize information to show patterns and relationships.
A graph shows this information by representing it as a shape. Researchers and scientists
often use tables and graphs to report findings from their research. In choosing what type of
graph to use, determine the specific purpose of the presentation. Line Graph illustrates
trends and changes in data over time, Bar Graph illustrates comparisons of amounts and
quantities, while Pie Graph (Circle Graph) displays the relationship of parts to a whole.

Cont.
Figure 1 shows the canteen lunch menu of GRSHS-X. The graph reveals that rice is highly
patronized by the students and teachers with 150 cups sold daily. It can also be noted that pork
and chicken menus have a good number of buyers (315 serve/pieces). Vegetable menus cannot
be undervalued since several consumers (135 serve/pieces) also patronized the food. At the
same time, seafood menus earn the last spot (50 serve/pieces sold). Generally, students and
faculty of GRSHS-X preferred meat (pork and chicken) menus next to rice.

evident that both sections are performing well, but Grade 10-Max managed to maintain consistently its high
performance than Grade 10-Min every quarter. During the second quarter, there is a noticeably far difference
between the two sections. Overall, Grade 10-Max gained a better performance in Elective Mathematics than
Grade 10-Min.

Figure 3 showed the result of the survey conducted to Grade 7 students when asked
about their dream job. From the graph, forty percent (40%) and thirty percent (30) of the
participants wanted to become a doctor and an engineer, respectively with just thirty percent
(30%) left for other professions. Only about five percent (5%) wanted to become a teacher. From
the data, more than 70% of the Grade 7 students will likely pursue STEM strand courses when
they graduate in high school.

Lesson
Using Statistical Techniques to
3 Analyze Data

What’s In

In the previous lesson, you were presented with options on how to present
and analyze your data through tables and graphs. As mentioned previously, data
analysis goes hand in hand with data presentation and is considered a time-
consuming task because it involves a series of investigations, classifications,
mathematical calculations, and graphical recording, among others.

You are fully aware that planning your research study is needed. Thus, it is
assumed that when you begin your research study, you have already identified the
scale of measurement to use in your research study. Comprehensive statistical
analysis is important before making conclusions about your study.

What I Need to Know

Statistical methods and techniques were already discussed in the previous modules.
Sample Size Determination was also introduced in Module 4, Lesson 2. This lesson will
discuss deeply the five most useful statistical techniques specifically in quantitative research:
Percentage, Mean, Standard Deviation, Correlation, Regression, and Hypothesis Testing.

The computational procedure for hypothesis testing (Chapter 3) will also be shown in
this lesson because this is where your decision-making skill will be tested. You will
investigate and evaluate the claims about your study before writing your conclusions.

What’s New

One need to get the range from which the mean of a five-point Likert can be
interpreted. There are two methods to do this, if we treat the Likert scale as interval/ratio.
First, the usual way is to calculate the interval by computing the range (e.g., 5 − 1 = 4), then
divided it by the maximum value (e.g. 4 ÷ 5 = 0.80). Ultimately, we get the following result:
From 1 to 1.80 represents (strongly disagree).
From 1.81 to 2.60 represents (do not agree).
From 2.61 to 3.40 represents (true to some extent).
From 3:41 to 4:20 represents (agree).
From 4:21 to 5:00 represents (strongly agree).

The other way is to treat the selection as the range themselves, and so we get these
results:
From 0.01 to 1.00 is (strongly disagree);
From 1.01 to 2.00 is (disagree);
From 2.01 to 3.00 is (neutral);
From 3.01 to 4:00 is (agree);
From 4.01 to 5.00 is (strongly agree)

Sum 465 470 43265 44214 43730

Step 1. Compute the value of 𝑟 using the Pearson’s r formula.


5(43730)−(465)(470)
𝑟 = √[5(43265)−(465)2][5(44214)−(470)2] =0.77

Step 2. From the table of values, there is a strong positive correlation between the grade in
Math and the grade in English.

5. Regression Analysis can be used to explain the relationship between dependent and
independent variables.

Three major uses:


a. Causal analysis -shows you the possible causation of changes in Y by changes X.
b. Forecasting an Effect- allows you estimate and predict the value of Y given the
value of X.
c. Linear Trend Forecasting- helps you trace the line best fit to tine series

Formula: 𝑌 = 𝑚𝑋 + 𝑏
(∑ 𝑦)(∑ 𝑥2)−(∑ 𝑥)(∑
𝑏=
𝑥𝑦) 𝑛(∑ 𝑥𝑦)−(∑ 𝑥)(∑ 𝑦)
𝑛(∑ 𝑥2)−(∑ 𝑥)2 𝑚= 𝑛(∑ 𝑥2)−(∑ 𝑥) 2

Example:

Using the same data from Table 3, answer the following questions:

a. What linear equation best predicts the grade in English given the grade in Math?

Step 1: Compute the 𝑏 and


𝑚.
𝑛(∑ 𝑥𝑦)−(∑ 𝑥)(∑ 𝑦)
(∑ 𝑦)(∑ 𝑥2)−(∑ 𝑥)(∑ 𝑥𝑦) 𝑚= 𝑛(∑ 𝑥2)−(∑ 𝑥) 2
𝑏= 𝑛(∑ 𝑥2)−(∑ 𝑥)2
5(43730)−(465)(470)
(470)(43265)−(465)(43730) 𝑚 = 5(43265)−(216225)
𝑏= 5(43265)−216225
𝑏=1 𝑚=1

Step 2: Substitute the value of m and b to the regression formula.


The regression equation for predicting the grade in English given the grade in Math is
𝑌 = 𝑋 + 1.
33 CO_Q2_SHS Practical Research 2_Module 2
b. If a student made a grade of 91 in Math, what grade would you expect the student to
obtain in English?

Using the obtain equation 𝑌 = 𝑋 + 1, substitute 91 in X.


𝑌 = 91 + 1 = 92 (Grade in English)

According to this model, for every 1point increase in the Math grade, there is a
corresponding average increase of 1 point in the English grade.

c. How well does the regression equation fit the data?

Interpretation:

The Math grade is directly proportional to the English grade because the slope
is positive.

6. Hypothesis testing. A hypothesis test helps you determine some quantity under a given
assumption. The outcome of the test tells you whether the assumption holds or whether
the assumption has been violated.

From Module 3, you were exposed to creating your Null hypothesis (𝑯𝟎) which
states that there is no difference between the two values or variables and the Alternative
hypothesis (𝑯𝟏) which states that there is a difference between two values or variables.

The statistical test uses the data obtained from a sample to decide about whether
the null hypothesis should be rejected. In a one-tailed test (left-tailed or right-tailed
test), when the test value falls in the critical region on one side of the mean, the null
hypothesis should be rejected.

On the other hand, in a two-tailed test, the null hypothesis should be rejected when
the test value falls in either of the two critical regions.

One-tailed, right-tailed test One-tailed, left-tailed test Two-tailed test

To perform hypothesis testing, you compute the mean from the sample and compare
it with the mean from the population. Then, you decide whether to reject or not reject the

34 CO_Q2_SHS Practical Research 2_Module 2


null hypothesis. If the difference is significant, the null hypothesis is rejected. If the
difference is not significant, then the null hypothesis is not rejected. In the hypothesis-
testing, there are four possible results.

𝐻0true 𝐻0𝑓𝑎𝑙𝑠𝑒

Reject 𝐻0 Error Correct


Type I decision
Do not reject 𝐻0 Correct Error
decision Type II

The four possibilities are as follows:


1. It would be an incorrect decision and would result in a Type I error when you
reject the null hypothesis when it is true.
2. It would be a correct decision when you reject the null hypothesis when it is false.
3. It would be a correct decision when you do not reject the null hypothesis when it
is true.
4. It would be an incorrect decision and would result in a Type II error when you do
not reject the null hypothesis when it is false.

The basic format for hypothesis testing:


1. State the hypotheses and identify them.
2. Find the critical value(s).
3. Compute the test value.
4. Make the decision.
5. Summarize the result.
6.

Hypothesis testing can be done using the following t-value approach or critical value
approach and 𝑝-value approach.

1. The Critical Value Approach is used to determine whether the observed test statistic is
more extreme than a defined critical value. Hence, the observed test statistic (calculated on
the basis of sample data) is compared to the critical value, from t-table. If the test statistic
(𝒕∗) is more extreme than the critical value (t), the null hypothesis is rejected. If the test
statistic is not as extreme as the critical value, the null hypothesis is not rejected.

One-Sample t-test Formula: 𝒕∗ = 𝑿̅ −𝝁 ̅ 𝟐


𝝈 = √∑(𝑿−𝑿)
𝟎 𝒏
Example: 𝒔
√𝒏

A random sample of 10 Grade 7 students has grades in Math, where marks range
from 90 (Good) to 98 (Excellent). The general average grade (Gen. Ave.) of all Grade 7
students as of the last 5 years is 93. Is the Gen. Ave. of the 10 Grade 7 students
different from the population’s Gen. Ave? Use 0.05 level of significance.

Student 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Math Grade 90 98 97 93 94 91 97 93 93 94

Given: 𝑛=10 𝛼 =0.05 𝜇 0 =93 𝑋̅=94 sd= 2.68

35 CO_Q2_SHS Practical Research 2_Module 2


Computational Procedure:
1. Define the Null and Alternative Hypothesis
𝐻0: There is no significant difference between the gen. ave. of 10 Grade 7 students
from the population’s gen. average of 93.
𝐻0: 𝜇 = 93
𝐻1: There is a significant difference between the gen. ave. of 10 Grade 7 students
from the population’s gen. average of 93.
𝐻1: 𝜇 ≠ 93
2. State the alpha and the degree of freedom.
𝛼 = 0.05
𝐷𝑓 = 𝑛 − 1 = 10 − 1 = 9
3. State the decision rule.
One-tailed Test: |𝑡| > 𝑧𝑎𝑧; 𝑎Reject 𝐻0
Two-tailed Test: |𝑡| > ; Reject 𝐻
2 0
4. Calculate the Test Statistic.
𝑋̅ −𝜇 0 94−93 =1.18
𝑡= 𝑠 = 2.68
√𝑛 √10
5. State results (use t table to get the critical value, see procedure below).
𝑡𝛼
𝑡 =2.263
2
= 0.05 = 𝑡
𝑛−1 10−1 0.0025
|1.18| < 2.262
6. Decision: Accept 𝐻0
7. Conclusion: Therefore, the average grade of 10 Grade 7 students is not different
from the population’s average grade in Math which is 93.

2. P-value Approach involves determining the probability (assuming the null hypothesis
were true) of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative
hypothesis than the one observed. If the P-value is less than (or equal to) 𝛼 then the null
hypothesis is rejected in favor of the alternative hypothesis. And, if the P-value is greater
than 𝛼, then the null hypothesis is not rejected.

Example:
Use the same data from Example 1 of Critical value approach:
Computational Procedure:
1. Define the Null and Alternative Hypothesis
𝐻0: There is no significant difference between the gen. ave. of 10 Grade 7 students
from the population’s gen. average of 93.
𝐻0: 𝜇 = 93

𝐻1: There is a significant difference between the gen. ave. of 10 Grade 7 students
from the population’s gen. average of 93.
𝐻1: 𝜇 ≠ 93
2. State the alpha and the degree of freedom.
𝛼 = 0.05
𝐷𝑓 = 𝑛 − 1 = 10 − 1 = 9
3. State the decision rule.
One-tailed Test: |𝑡| > 𝑧𝑎𝑧;𝑎 Reject 𝐻0
Two-tailed Test: |𝑡| > ; Reject 𝐻
2 0
4. Calculate the Test Statistic.
𝑋̅ −𝜇 0 94−93 =1.18
𝑡= 𝑠 = 2.68
√𝑛 √10
5. Use statistical software or an online calculator (https://www.statology.org/t-score-p-
value- calculator/) to find the corresponding p-value.
One-tailed P-value: 0.13412
Two-tailed P-value: 0.26825

36 CO_Q2_SHS Practical Research 2_Module 2


6. State results.
One-tailed |0.13412| > 0.05
Two-tailed |0.26825| > 0.05
7. Decision: Accept 𝐻0
Since this p-value is not less than our chosen alpha level of 0.05, we can’t reject the
null hypothesis.
8. Conclusion: Therefore, the average grade of 10 Grade 7 students is not different
from the population’s average grade in Math which is 93.
Here are the steps in finding the t-value or critical value at the t-table:
1. Locate your confidence level (alpha level) at the top row of the t-table found below
(this tells you which column you need).
2. Intersect this column with the row for your 𝑑𝑓 (degrees of freedom). The number you
see is the critical value (or the t-value) for your confidence interval.
Table of T-Values

Examples:

Given t-value (critical value)


1. 𝑑𝑓=5, 𝛼=0.05, two-tailed test 2.571
2. 𝑑𝑓=12, 𝛼=0.05, one-tailed test 1.782
