The gold standard of research designs are: Question 30 options: a) Adequate sample sizes b) Randomized controlled trials c) Free of known bias d) Adequate pilot testing

b) Randomized controlled trials

Explanation:

Randomized controlled trials are usually viewed as the "gold standard of research designs" because they have a great potential of limiting or even eliminating all sorts of bias, and, therefore, provide the highest level of evidence when performing a research.

The answer is b) Randomized controlled trials

B) Randomized Controlled trials

Explanation:

Randomized controlled trial is (RCT) study in which people are allocated at random  to receive one of several clinical interventions.A Randomized Controlled Trial is an experiment or study conducted in such a way that as many sources of bias as possible are removed from the process.

Of all the many ways research can be conducted, the gold standard level of proof where treatments and therapies are concerned is the Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT). ...

A) 0.265

B) 0.0265

C) 0.837

D) 0.0837

E) 0.00265

F) 0.00837

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

√7 = 2.65 and √70 = 8.37

A) √0.07 can be rewritten as;

√(7 × 1/100)

Let's deal with the digits in the bracket.

Square root of 100 is 10. Thus;

√(7 × 1/100) = (1/10)√7 = (1/10) × 2.65 = 0.265

B) √0.0007

Rewrite to get;

√(7 × 1/10000)

Square root of 1/10000 is 1/100

Thus;

√(7 × 1/10000) = (1/100)√7 = (1/100) × 2.65 = 0.0265

C) √0.7

Like above;

√0.7 = √(70 × (1/100))

>> (1/10)√70 = (1/10) × 8.37 = 0.837

D) √0.007

Like above;

Rewrite to get;

√(70 × 1/10000)

Square root of 1/10000 is 1/100

Thus;

√(70 × 1/10000) = (1/100)√70 = (1/100) × 8.37 = 0.0837

E) √0.000007

Rewritten to;

√(7 × (1/1000000))

√(1/1000000) = 1/1000

Thus; √(7 × (1/1000000)) = 1/1000 × √7 = 1/1000 × 2.65 = 0.00265

F)√0.00007

Rewritten to;

√(70 × (1/1000000))

√(1/1000000) = 1/1000

Thus; √(70 × (1/1000000)) = 1/1000 × √70 = 1/1000 × 8.37 = 0.00837
