These is glossary of research key terms. This glossary is intended as an aid to
professionals and non-professionals who find the world of research
somewhat intimidating. While it is impossible to cover all the terms
that can be confusing, this document briefly defines some of the more
common terms and concepts. | |

| Makalah | Makalah adalah tulisan resmi yang mengkaji suatu sub bahasan/permasalahan oleh orang yang ahli pada bidangnya (sesuai dengan permasalahan yang dibahas) yang hasilnya akan dipublikasikan dan disampaikan secara tuntas mengenai pembahasan tersebut dimuka umum, dan hasil dari pembahsan tersebut akan dipertanggung jawabkan oleh penulis. |
| Mapping | creating and displaying data on a map of a geographical or political area that uses different patterns or colors to indicate the distribution categories of a variable. |
| Mean | A descriptive statistic used as a measure of central tendency. All scores in a set of scores are added together and divided by the number of subjects. a term that refers to the central tendency, specifically the statistical average of a set of observations (sum of all cases/number of cases). For example if you had the values 1,2,3,4,5 the mean would be 3. The mean is symbolized by roman symbol X for a sample and by the Greek symbol µ for the population. |
| Measure of association | Measure of the strength of the relationship between two variables. |
| Measurement | The generation of data. A process of assigning numbers (or codes) to things such that certain specifiable relationships among the things are reflected in certain relationships among the numbers. For example, when we measure the mass of objects, we assign a number to each object, known as its weight. If the number assigned to object A is 10 and to object B is 20, we can say that object B has twice as much mass as object A. This preservation of ratios works for the way we measure mass, but it doesn't work for the way we (usually) measure temperature. Exactly which kinds of relationships between the numbers is actually reflective of relationships among the objects is what defines the level of the measurement. |
| Measurement scale | Measurement of a phenomenon or property means assigning a number or category to represent it. The methods used to display and/or analyse numerical (quantitative) data will depend on the type of scale used to measure the variable(s). There are four scales of measurement: nominal, ordinal, interval or ratio. The data associated with each measurement scale are referred to as nominal data, ordinal data, interval data and ratio data respectively. |
| Median | 1. a descriptive statistic used to measure central tendency. The median is the score/value that is exactly in the middle of a distribution (i.e. the value above which and below which 50% of the scores lie). 2. a term that refers to the central tendency or typical score of a bivariate distribution, specifically the median is the numerical value of middle case in a distribution. For example if you had the values 6, 10, 12, 12, 13, 14, 16 the median would be 12. |
