Ai-a, ii-b, iii-c, iv-d

Bi-d, ii-a, iii-b, iv-c

Ci-c, ii-d, iii-b, iv-a ✓ Correct

Di-b, ii-c, iii-d, iv-a

Correct answer: (C) i-c, ii-d, iii-b, iv-a

Explanation

Path analysis is represented by structured linear regression equations that model direct and indirect effects among variables.

Content analysis uses the method of unitisation, breaking text into coding units for systematic counting.

Canonical correlational analysis simultaneously examines the relationship between two sets of variables.

Discourse analysis looks at argumentation and language use systematically.

Pairing path analysis with argumentation or content analysis with regression would misdescribe each technique.

Path analysis extends multiple regression by allowing a variable to be both cause and effect.
