Outline a research design to study Cloud Security
Instructions
Outline a research design to study “Cloud Security.” Pay careful attention to the tradeoffs that were made to mitigate plausible threats to validity. Although your research design strategy outline is a first draft and you have not yet explored all of the possible designs in quantitative research, the strategy should be as realistic as possible with what you do know. Do your best to operationalize an approach to addressing your problem. In your research design outline, include the following:
Statement of the problem
Independent variable(s)
Dependent variable(s)
Measurement instrument or how the data will be collected
Statistical test to be employed
Assumptions of the statistical test to be employed
Sample size needed
Inclusion criteria for subjects to be included
Exclusion criteria for subjects to be excluded. (Note: To facilitate calculating the estimate of sample size needed, a link to G*Power has been included in the weekly references.)
Once your research design outline has been developed, revisit your design with a critical eye on remaining plausible threats to validity. Briefly discuss the plausibility of the four threats to valid inference making as it pertains to your research design. Be sure to note both limitations and delimitations.
Length: 4-5 pages not including title page and references
Your response should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts that are presented in the course and provide new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your response should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards
