Answer to Question 1

ANS: C, E, F
Rigor is striving for excellence in research and involves discipline, scrupulous adherence to detail, and strict accuracy. A rigorous quantitative researcher constantly strives for more precise measurement methods, structured treatment, representative samples, and tightly controlled study designs. Characteristics valued in these researchers include critical examination of reasoning and attention to precision.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B, C, E, F
A research design is a blueprint for maximizing control over factors that could interfere with a study's desired outcome. The choice of research design depends on the researcher's expertise, the problem and purpose for the study, and the desire to generalize the findings. This means that other research in the area must be taken into consideration as well.
