  2. Types of Quant. Methods in SP • Experimental and quasi-experimental – examine changes in variables to arive at a causal inference • Cross-sectional nonexperimental – estimating population parameters and (co)variation among variables • Longitudinal nonexperimental and historical – occurrence of events in their time to understand causes and consequences

  3. Concepts and Measurements • Conceptualization – involves developing concepts and specifying relationships among concepts (developing theory) • Operationalization – involves creating ways to measure concepts (creating methodological test)
