research?
a Something with no fixed numeric value.
b The options within a variable.
c A concept that means the same thing to one person as it does to
another.
d The characteristics of a given research design.
An operational definition is one that:
a Goes beyond a nominal definition of a concept to define it in a

b Defines a concept in such a way that it means the same thing to
one person as it does to another.
c Is similar to a description one would find in a dictionary.
d Both a and b.
The three ways to measure concepts are:

b Survey research, telephone interviewing, and participant
observation.
c Asking questions, making observations, and consulting existing
records.
d Self-administered questionnaires, computer-assisted telephone
interviewing, and semi-structured surveys.
A researcher is using data from the Census 2000 to ask new research
questions that go beyond the purpose for which the Census data were
collected. This type of data is:
a Secondary data.
b Primary data.
c Biased data.
d Qualitative data.
Which of the following best describe the main sources of data for
qualitative research?
a Secondary data.
b Unstructured observation and in-depth interviews.
c Numbers and counting things.
d Structured observation, experiments, and survey research. 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 Which of the following best describe the main sources of data for
quantitative research?
a Unstructured observation and in-depth interviews.

research?

c The majority of questions are close-ended questions.
d Both b and c.
A semi-structured survey is one in which:
a The majority of questions are close-ended questions.
b The interviewer is free to clarify the questions and follow up on
the participant’s responses.
c A computer asks the questions and records the responses.
d The interviewer asks questions as they are written with the aim

When survey respondents feel pressured to respond to questions in a
certain way regardless of whether the response is true, this is known
as:
a Social desirability.
b Social consciousness.
c Observer interference.
d Response bias.
Which of the following represents a strength of reviewing existing
records as a method of social work research?
a It can reduce the data-collection burden on respondents.
b It can help the researcher avoid the time and expenses of
collecting primary data.
c It effectively avoids both observer interference and social
desirability bias.
d Both a and b.
Researchers can be confident in research findings generated by the use
of standardized instruments when:
a The standardized instrument is based on evidence-based
practice.
b The standardized instrument incorporates sufficient self-report
measures.
c The standardized instrument accurately measures the variables
of concern.
d The standardized instrument has been developed by the
National Institutes of Health or other government sponsored
institution. 14 A score of 5 or more on the short form of the Geriatric Depression Scale

in this instance is known as what?

b A population norm for older adults.
c A scale score.
d The extent of measurement error.
15 Random error refers to which of the following?
a Errors that have a definite pattern.
b Errors that reflect outdated population norms.
c Errors that are neither consistent nor patterned.
d Errors generated during the process of random assignment.
16 A measure is considered valid when it:

b Is able to generate consistent results each time the measure is
administered.
c Is a standardized instrument with accurate population norms.
d Accurately represents the concept of interest to a high degree.
17 A measure is considered reliable when it is:
a A standardized instrument with accurate population norms.
b Able to generate consistent results each time the measure is
administered.
c Accurately able to represent the concept of interest to a high
degree.
d Able to generate the same results each time the measure is
administered, even when respondents have changed.
18 Each item on the licensing exam for social workers is designed to
address issues that are seen in everyday social work practice. A

practice. What type of validity is being addressed in this process?
a Scorer validity.
b Content validity.
c Construct validity.
d Criterion-related validity.

instruments?
a Test-retest reliability.
b Interrater reliability.
c Internal consistency.
d Parallel forms reliability
20 Interrater reliability refers to which of the following?
a The extent of agreement of rating by the same observer at
different points in time.
b How consistent a measure is when it is administered twice in a
relatively short time frame.
c The percentage of agreement between two observers.
d The extent to which all the items included in an index or scale
