Match List I (Type of research or study) with List II (Description) and choose the correct answer from the options given below.
List I
- Basic Research
- Correlational Research
- Case study
- Longitudinal study
List II
- Investigations meant to discover whether variables co-vary
- An in-depth study of a single or a few individuals to see how changes affect the person's behaviour
- A group of participants is observed and measured over time
- A study that tests or expands on theory
AI-b, II-d, III-a, IV-c
BI-d, II-a, III-b, IV-c ✓ Correct
CI-c, II-a, III-b, IV-d
DI-c, II-d, III-a, IV-b
Correct answer: (B) I-d, II-a, III-b, IV-c — The correct match is basic research with testing theory, correlational research with co-varying variables, case study with in-depth study and longitudinal study with observation over time, that is I-d, II-a,…
Explanation
★The correct match is basic research with testing theory, correlational research with co-varying variables, case study with in-depth study and longitudinal study with observation over time, that is I-d, II-a, III-b, IV-c.
★Basic research tests or expands on theory rather than solving an immediate problem.
★Correlational research investigates whether two variables co-vary.
★A case study is an in-depth study of a single or a few individuals.
★A longitudinal study observes and measures a group of participants over time.
★Matching research designs to their descriptions is a common research aptitude theme.
