Today's Quotes:  Jesse Owens On Responsibility:  "We all have dreams. But in
order to make dreams into reality, it takes an awful lot of determination,
dedication, self-discipline,
responsibility, and effort."

Research:  "In experimental studies, the variable we alter (manipulate or
observe) to affect the other is called the
independent variable. • The variable we
predict will be altered is called the
dependent variable."

Research:  Quantitative research is..."a formal, objective, systematic process in
which numerical data are utilized to obtain information about the world."  Burns
and Grove cited by Cormack 1991 p. 140).

Research:  Literature Review Definition: "... the process of systematically
identifying published materials which meet predetermined criteria" (Cormack D.
F.S. 1991). It requires that a critical evaluation of literature uncovered in the
literature search that has been undertaken.  Only when the article is read can its
value and significance to the study be known.
