题目内容

现在媒体对随机取样、样本代表性等概念倍加关注。这种关注导致许多人错误地认为,随机取样和代表性是所有学科做调查研究的必要条件。人体生物学研究因为很少使用随机的被试样本,许多研究成果都会受到批评。 但只要想一下其他学科的情况,就很容易理解这种想法的荒谬。化学家从没尝试过抽取化合物的随机样本,生物学家也不曾用细胞或组织的随机样本进行实验。这些研究结果都可以帮助我们理解:并非学术研究都需要使用随机样本。因此,我们在此需要强调的重点是:随机取样和随机分配不是一回事。 随机分配和随机取样两个词里都包含“随机”,许多人以为它们所指是一回事。事实上,它们是非常不同的概念,唯一相似之处在于它们都采用了随机生成数字这一点。然而其目的却______。 随机取样涉及的是如何选择被试进行研究。如前所述,并不是所有研究都要求随机取样,但当它成为必要条件时(例如在市场调查中),我们则需要用一种方法从总体中抽取一个样本,这种方法要确保总体中的每一个个体都有同等机会被选中,被抽中的个体就成为之后调查研究中的被试。有一点非常重要,这种随机取样的调查研究既可能是相关研究,也可能是一个真实验。只有使用了随机分配的方式,才有可能成为一个真实验。 随机分配是真实验所必需的条件。实验人员将被试分为实验组和控制组,当每一名被试被分到实验组的机会和被分到控制组的机会相等时,则实现了随机分配。为了达到这一点,常会用到像掷硬币这样的随机化手段(更常用的是一种特殊的随机化数字表格)——因为它在给被试分组时没有任何偏向。 随机分配和随机取样不是一回事,牢记这一点的最好方法是弄清楚四种组合:非随机分配的非随机样本,随机分配的非随机样本,非随机分配的随机样本,以及随机分配的随机样本。大部分实验没有使用随机样本,因为没有这个必要。所需要的只是一个方便取得的样本。如果一个研究中使用了随机分配的方法,那么它就是一项真实验;如果没有使用,那么它是一项相关调查。许多使用随机取样的研究没有使用随机分配,那是因为它们只是调查性研究,旨在寻找关联。一些研究既使用了随机取样,又使用了随机分配,那么它们肯定是真实验。 这篇文章主要强调的观点是:

A. 随机分配和随机取样是不同的概念
B. 科学研究与媒体调查的方法差别很大
C. “真实验”必须采用随机分配的方法
D. 随机取样与科学研究并无很大关系

Task 1Direction: After reading the following passage, you will find 5 questions or unfinished statements, numbered 36 through 40. For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A) , B) , C) or D) .
