The Criterion Collection

the important theoretical issue and tells one where to look for relevant information. Therefore, the purpose statement moves the researcher in the right direction. Yin (2014) argues that a strong purpose statement must be developed prior to the collection of data. The case study may be a single case study or multiple case studies that consist of qualitative and quantitative information that aligns with the purpose statement. However, case study research can include, and even be limited to,…

The DSM-5 has made a lot of changes to include other non substance related disorders. Although gambling has been added to the DSM-5 as a non substance use…

Research methods are a broad term. While methods of data collection and data analysis represent the core of research methods, the focus of the research is to collect data that can test both dependent and independent variables (Cresswell, 2008). The nature of the dependent variable (social media) in the hypothesis dictates the methodology and design for this perspective study. Therefore, the researcher is proposing an exploratory research to fully expose the potential and conceptual distinctions…

used to write Last Seen Alive (1995). Other possibilities include the personal papers of Defense Secretaries and State Secretaries. According to my talk with NARA archivists, only a small amount of POW/MIA inquiries may be directed to the personal collections of these officials. My plan is to use their online name index to confirm whether they contain correspondence of my interest. I predict that in…

As a reading educator I am always enquiring about better ways to enhance the learning trajectory of my students; therefore, my curiosity about this topic. The purpose of this comparative paper is to discover insightful information in regards of qualitative and…

Rest Energy Rest Energy, by Marina Abramović, is a 1980 performance piece created and performed in liaison with Ulay. The performance, which was recorded in Amsterdam, offers a staged enactment, which is the medium, of the great levels of vulnerability and trust entrenched in any deep relationship (Abramović et al., 1998). In this performance piece, Abramović and Ulay face each other with an arrow and a bow between them, which is the art object. As Abramović is holding the bow across her chest,…

Another commonly acknowledged theoretical issue in social research is generalisation. Many scholars (e.g. Kerlinger and Lee, 2000; Shadish, Cook and Campbell, 2002; Polit and Beck, 2010) believed that the notion of generalisability is a primary criterion for appraising the quality of a quantitative research, instead of a qualitative research. According to Polit and Beck (2010), the notion of generalisation mainly discussed by quantitative researchers, refers to ‘an act of reasoning’ that…
