Description |
| Broad Topic/ Area | The detection of periodontal and peri-implant diseases from specific and sensitive points of care/chairside using oral fluid immunotests. |
| Variables and type of data for the variables | Host characteristics: gums, genetics and general dental hygiene such as the occurrence or lack of plaques. |
| Population of interest for the study | Persons suffering from chronic periodontitis and peri-implantitis |
| Sample |
80 participants: 10 with chronic periodontitis 30 with peri-implantitis 10 healthy controls for chronic periodontitis 30 healthy controls for peri-implantitis |
| Sampling Method | Purposive sampling technique |
| Descriptive Statistics (mean, median, mode, SD) |
10 healthy controls for chronic periodontitis were students aged between 22 and 24 years. Of the 30 sample clients with peri-implantitis, the procedure detected 29 positive cases |
| Inferential Statistics | Overall statistics show 100% sensitivity to the procedures with a p-value of less than 0.0001, hence significant. |

Description |
| Broad Topic/ Area | Measurement of a patient-reported outcome in relation to an objective endpoint |
| Variables and type of data for the variables |
Objective endpoint: effectiveness of a drug or medical service Patient-reported outcome: positive or negative Patient characteristics: ability to reveal the truth or not |
| Population of interest for the study | Patients on checkup visits where medical services are offered |
| Sample | 928 subjects on clinical check-up visits |
| Sampling Method | Purposive sampling technique |
| Descriptive Statistics (mean, median, mode, SD) |
414 subjects with a mean of 8 in satisfaction dichotomized value 324 subjects with a mean of 14 in satisfaction dichotomized value 190 subjects with a mean of 21 in satisfaction dichotomized value |
| Inferential Statistics | All categories of the dichotomized satisfaction value had a p-value of less than 0.001 suggesting strong significance. |

Description |
| Broad Topic/ Area | Research on key adult education journals |
| Variables and type of data for the variables |
Research paradigms: qualitative or quantitative Adult education journals |
| Population of interest for the study | Published adult education journals |
| Sample |
3 leading adult education journals 1089 articles |
| Sampling Method | Purposive sampling technique |
| Descriptive Statistics (mean, median, mode, SD) |
Of the 3 journals: 498 research approaches were qualitative 191 research approaches were quantitative 26 articles mentioned the correlation 11 of the 26 articles also mentioned regression analyses |
| Inferential Statistics | Qualitative projects use interview studies while quantitative projects use questionnaire studies, i.e., 68 out of 498 qualitative and 38 out of 191 quantitative. |
