Research methods Hw

Follow the following instructions, please to develop my research data collection instrument:

Data Collection Instrument Instructions 

• · Based on your Research Question (s), Specific Aims, and Study Approach, you will design an instrument using the slides from Class 9, 3/29/18 lecture as a guide.
• · You will each design a missed methods data collection instrument containing both quantitative and qualitative questions.
• · You will decide whether you want your data collection instrument to be primarily quantitative or qualitative.
• · For Quantitative studies, a survey or similar data collection instrument with a MINIMUM of 10 items (may have more) is required. You will also include 3-5 open-ended, qualitative questions at the end.
• · For Qualitative studies a GENERAL (SEMI-STRUCTURED) INTERVIEW GUIDE of at least 10 questions is required. You will also include an quantitative introductory (3-5 question) set of questions at the beginning. For example, you might ask some demographic questions (age, gender, yes-no questions, how many times…. Etc.)
• · For each question, you will briefly tell what research question, aim, or variable you are collecting.
• · For primarily quantitative surveys, you will describe how you propose to establish validity (and what type(s) of validity) and reliability (types).
• · For qualitative interview guides, you will describe the field notes you will collect in advance to inform the questions. You do not need to discuss validity/ reliability for the introductory quantitative questions preceding your interview guide.

– You can use the attached documents as a references to get a general idea about my research topic.

– Then, develop the data collection instrument based on that.
