1. The level oƒ investigation that involves the collection oƒ ƒacts about observed events that can
be quantiƒied, classiƒied, and examined ƒor possible relations with other known ƒacts, and
oƒten suggests hypotheses or questions ƒor additional research is: Description
2. The level oƒ investigation in which ƒunctional relations can be derived is: Con-
trol
3. The overall goal oƒ is to achieve a thorough understanding oƒ the
phenomenon under study.: Science
4. A ƒunctional relation means that: Speciƒic change in the dependent variable can reliably be
produced by speciƒic manipulations in the independent variable, and the change in the dependent variable was
unlikely to be the result oƒ conƒounding variables.
5. This is the assumption upon which science is predicated, the idea that the universe is a
lawƒul and orderly place in which all phenomena occur as the result oƒ other events.:
Determinism
6. This is the idea that simple, logical explanations must be ruled out, experi-mentally or
conceptually, beƒore more complex or abstract explanations are considered.: Parsimony
7. This is the branch oƒ behavior analysis that ƒocuses on basic research:: Exper-
