Question 1: What does conducting scientific research primarily mean?
Developing science through intuitive processes
Applying the scientific method to obtain scientific knowledge
Isolating data without relating it to specific problems
Relying on personal judgments and expert opinions
Question 2: In the context of scientific knowledge, what does an empirical origin imply for a researcher?
Basing conclusions solely on direct observation without theory
Guided by experiences from systematic methods and verifiable evidence
Depending on expert consensus without empirical checks
Supported by the researcher's personal values and intuitions

By treating theories as final and unchanging truths
Through methodical doubt that allows theories to be refined or altered by new data
By rejecting all forms of uncertainty in conclusions
By accepting knowledge without any possibility of revision
Question 4: What best characterizes the hypothetical-deductive method in scientific investigation?
Starting only from data to build general theories
Cyclically combining theory and data to expand and refine scientific knowledge
Deducing specific facts without empirical validation
Rejecting induction and deduction entirely
Question 5: Among the objectives of science, what does the ability to predict and control phenomena involve?
Merely describing elements of reality without deeper analysis
Identifying cause-effect relationships under specific conditions
Focusing only on why and how behaviors occur
Breaking reality into isolated basic elements
Question 6: According to Kerlinger (1985), what defines educational research most accurately?
A spontaneous, subjective process based on opinions
A systematic, controlled, empirical, and critical activity
An intuitive, non-verifiable approach to quick problem-solving
A purely theoretical endeavor without practical application
Question 7: In educational research, which characteristic ensures results can be confirmed or revised in future studies?
Precision in language and communication
Empiricism through systematic data collection
Verification via repeatable methods and logical reasoning
Reliance on personal experience alone
Question 8: Which paradigm in educational research emphasizes quantitative methods and the hypothetical-deductive approach?
