Answer to Question 1

True

Answer to Question 2

A research synthesis is a systematic study of multiple prior research projects that address the same research question or topic and summarize the results in a manner that can be used by practitioners. There are two major types of research syntheses. A meta-analysis uses statistical methods to combine the results of similar studies quantitatively in order to allow general conclusions to be made. A systematic review is a research synthesis approach that focuses on a specific question or issue and uses specific preplanned methods to identify, select, assess, and summarize the findings of multiple research studies. It may or may not include a meta-analysis (a quantitative synthesis of results). Often, a systematic review involves a panel of experts who discuss the research literature and reach conclusions about how well a discovery works to address a problem or issue. So, while a meta-analysis is always a quantitative synthesis, a systematic review may be a judgmental expert-driven synthesis, a meta-analysis, or both.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
