Quantitative: Non-Experimental Approach

Research on a non-experimental quantitative study and address the following:

· Describe the constructs and variables under investigation.

· Describe the instrument or instruments used in the research. Include a discussion of the concepts of construct validity and reliability.

· Identify the statistical tests used to analyze the data, and discuss the implications of the results with regard to interpretation of non-experimental data.

· Evaluate the scientific merit of the selected design. Did a correlational design allow the researchers to answer the research question or questions? How might you have designed this study differently?

· List the persistent link for the article.
