| Confidence interval | A confidence interval identifies a range of values that includes the true population value of a particular characteristic at a specified probability level (usually 95%). |
| Confidence Levels and Confidence Interva | a range of values around the point estimate (a statistic value) for a population that express the degree we are confident that the point estimate accurately reflects the population parameter e.g. common confidence 90%, 95%,and 99% and one would say that we are 95% confident that the population mean lies between plus or minus 7.5% points of the observed statistic value. |
| Confounding variabel | A variable, other than the variable(s) under investigation, which is not controlled for and which may distort the results of experimental research. |
| Connotation | The deep and cultural meaning of a word ('tree' as 'strength', 'oak' as 'Englishness'). |
| Constant comparative method | A procedure used during grounded theory research whereby newly gathered data are continually compared with previously collected data in order to refine the development of theoretical categories. |
| Construct (noun) | A variable in a theory. Sometimes carries the connotation of something that cannot be observed directly, or which we suppose to exist but has not been measured yet. Similar in this sense to a latent variable. Intelligence is a construct that is used to explain competence. |
| Construct validity | refers to the degree to which a research instrument measures a theoretical concept (or construct) under investigation. |
