Down: 1) The state of things as they actually exist; everything that is, whether or not it is observable or comprehensible3) A set of principles or right conduct in a society, moral philosophy4) Reasoning from factual knowledge or evidence5) A set procedure for a scientific experiment6) Part of an experiment that remains the same8) Procedures that scientists use to solve a problem or answer a question; steps: observation, state the problem, research (background information), form a hypothesis, test a hypothesis (experiment), record and analyze data, state a conclusion9) The application of science to the needs of society, especially to industrial or commercial objectives10) Isolates the effect of one variable on a system by holding constant all variables but the one under observation11) A conceptual tool often applied in science, engineering, mathematics and statistics to understand physical situations involving a mix of different kinds of physical quantities12) Consists of the smallest observation the first quartile, the median, the third quartile and the largest observation of a data set.13) Can assume only a few possible values on the scale used to measure it; divisions of these values are not valid, measure of “how many”14) A theory, methodology, or practice falsely presented as scientific15) Measure of differences in type rather than amount. Qualities distinguish these items. (Ex: race, gender, color, categorical data)21) Responding variable; responds to changes in the manipulated variable23) Procedures that engineers use to solve a problem; steps: define a need, develop criteria, research, prepare preliminary designs, build and test a prototype, retests and redesign as necessary24) A population of continuous variables in a bell shaped symmetrical curve27) A population of continuous variables in an asymmetrical curve, shoes lopsidedness of frequencies28) A measurement of the closeness with an accepted value29) Measurement of the spread of values; square root of the variance31) Becoming aware of through careful and directed attention32) In science, a well-tested explanation of a natural phenomenon that unifies a broad range of observations with a high degree of confidence34) Goodness of fit test; used to evaluate difference between experimental and observed data of discrete variables36) A tentative explanation for an observation or phenomenon that can be used as the basis for an investigation37) Represents the middle value of a distribution40) A fourth of a group of members41) A technique for analyzing random samples of continuous variables from normally distributed populations42) Knowledge or information based on real occurrences46) The sum of the squared deviations divided by n-148) A scientist’s laboratory notebook containing the written record of mental and physical activities from their research project50) Arithmetic average; the most common measure of center Across: 2) The most repeated number in a distribution7) Statistical fluctuations in measured data due to precision limitations of the measurement device; usually result from the experimenter’s inability to take the same measurement in exactly the same way to get exactly the same number16) The observation, identification, description, experimental investigation, and theoretical explanation of phenomena17) Graphical representation helpful in interpreting the distribution of data. A box is drawn with ends through the points for the first and third quartiles. Then a vertical line is drawn through the box at the median point. Next the whiskers (or lines) are drawn from each end of the box to the smallest and largest values18) A measurement of the distance between the first and third quartiles, measure the spread of the middle half of the data19) First to last number in an ordered pair, to find subtract the smallest observation from the largest20) States that any difference seen in two sets of numbers is simply due to chance and is not significant. P values of less than 0.05 are generally considered adequate for rejection22) A decision based on observations25) Normal bell shaped curve of a histogram, they have identifiable standard deviation26) Take on any value on the scale used to measure it: measure of “how much”, examples include length, mass and volume30) A source that is an expert in the field of being researched33) A display that organizes data to show its shape and distribution. Each data value is split into a stem and a leaf. The leaf is usually the last digit of the number and the other digits to the left of the leaf form the stem.35) Manipulated variable, the scientist deliberately changes it38) Reproducible inaccuracies that are consistently in the same direction; due to a problem (such as an improperly adjusted scale) which persists throughout the entire experiment39) A list of citations to books, articles and documents followed by a brief descriptive and evaluative paragraph of the relevancy, accuracy, and quality of the sources cited43) An observation that is numerically distant from the rest of the data. An observation is an outlier if it falls more than 1.5 X IQR below Q1 or about Q344) Those digits of a number that carries meaning contributing to its precision.45) Measure quantity. These are things to which we can assign a number, or that can be measured. (Ex: age, height, weight)47) The American Psychological Association format for work cited; preferred for writing in science49) A bar graph of a frequency distribution can be skewed or in a bell shaped curve51) Degree of exactness; how close a series of measurements are to one another52) A changed factor in an experiment53) The process of reasoning in which a conclusion follows necessarily from the premises; from the general to the specific54) The process of acquiring, interpreting, selecting and organizing sensory information55) The process of driving general principles from particular facts or instances; specific observation to general conclusions. (Ex. All sheep that I’ve seen are white, so all sheep must be white).
