Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
"Dr. Parrett is a sports psychologist for a large Southern university. The provost and chancellor have asked him to examine the relationship between athletic performance and academic stress at the university. For example, is it the case that the most talented athletes experience the greatest concern over their grades? The provost and chancellor have made it clear to Dr. Parrett that they want a large amount of external validity in the study. He has valid and reliable measures of both athletic performance and academic stress. He knows that he does not have the time or the money to study the entire population of interest.
Imagine that Dr. Parrett wants to use a nonrepresentative sampling technique. Name the three types of nonprobability sampling and explain how each one could be used by Dr. Parrett."
Answer:
The four types of nonprobability sampling are convenience sampling, purposive sampling, quota sampling, and snowball sampling.
Explanation:
Convenience sampling: Allows a selection to be made of a small sample of the target population of the research. This sample is made up of individuals who are available and accessible to research and not through statistical criteria. Regarding the question above, Dr. Parrett can select the athletes he knows and who would like to participate in the research.
Purposive sampling: It allows the sample to be controlled whenever a certain manipulation is possible to generate expected and known results. In the case of the question above, Dr Parrett can search for specific athletes, with characteristics that will generate an expected result in the research.
Snowball sampling: Allows the individuals who make up the sample to invite other individuals to compose the sample, who in turn can invite other individuals. In the case of the question above, Dr. Parret can invite the athletes he wants and ask them to call friends to participate in the survey as well.
Sampling quota: Allows the individuals who will compose the sample to be selected due to their characteristics and qualities. Regarding the question above, Dr. Parrett could only summon athletes with high marks.
Answer: The correct answer is: Recognizing needs.
Explanation: Needs recognition in the consumer decision-making process refers to the stage in which a person establishes and decides what are his/her needs. A consumer feels that there's something that he/she is missing and will try to feel that lacking with a product.
<u> It is the first stage in the consumer decision-making process</u>.
In this particular case, Camila determines that since she runs more regularly now, she wants shoes that can withstand many days of pounding the pavement.
<u>She has determined her needs.</u>
Answer:
True
Explanation:
In America, according to its government, education is considered a priority. The federal government provides funding to ensure students are receiving high-quality education as this will lead to the formation of professionals that will make the country better.
<u>America's (United States) higher education system is considered the second largest</u> after China. This reflects the values and aspiration of the country because it demonstrates and emphasizes that education is a priority.
However, similar to many countries, it has its benefits and failures. For instance, some researchers state that educators are still using old methods that are not working for today's young students and there is an urgent need for innovation. Therefore, there are still many aspects to improve.
Answer:
situational influences; personal dispositions
Explanation:
Situational influences refers to temporary condition that influence people's decision making while personal dispositions refers to concrete motives/principles that influences people's decision making.
People generally believe that we make our decisions (such as purchasing decision) based on personal dispositions along. But if situational influences are manipulated properly, it will influence other people without they even realizing it. This is why people often underestimate its impact.
