General Instructions: Answer the questions below. Follow instructions properly.

I. TRUE or FALSE. Write QUANTITATIVE after the item when the sentence is true while
QUALITATIVE if the statement is false.
_______________1. In quantitative research, researchers know in advance what they are looking
for.
_______________2. Quantitative research can be easily misinterpreted because it provides
numerical data.
_______________3. Quantitative research puts emphasis on proof, rather than discovery.
_______________4. Normative research is conducted by researcher whose aim would be to find
out the direction and/or relationship between different variables or group of
respondents under study.
_______________5. Qualitative research requires a large number of respondents. It assumes that
the larger the sample is, the more statistically accurate the findings are.
_______________6. Evaluation describes the status of a phenomenon at a particular time. It
describes without value judgment a situation that prevents.
_______________7. Correlational is conducted by researchers whose aim would be to find out
the direction and/or relationship between different variables or
groups of respondents under study.
_______________8. Methodological is the implementation of a variety of methodologies that
forms a critical part of achieving the goal of developing a
scaled-matched approach, where data from different disciplines can
be integrated.
_______________9. One characteristics of quantitative research is that its method can be
repeated to verify findings in another setting, thus, reinforcing validity
findings
_______________10.In quantitative experiments it filters out external factors, if
properly designed, and so the results gained can be seen, as real and
unbiased.

II. Put a tick (/) if it describes the characteristics of a Quantitative Research.

_________ 1. Data is in the form of words, pictures or objects.
_________ 2. The data is usually gathered using structured research instruments.
_________ 3. It is not based upon numerical measurements and does not use numbers and
statistical methods as key research indicators and tools.
_________ 4. It tends to be associated with small-scale studies and a holistic perspective, often
studying a single occurrence or small number of occurrences/case studies in great
depth.
_________ 5. The research study can usually be replicated or repeated, given its high reliability.
_________ 6. Data are in the form of numbers and statistics, often arranged in tables, charts,
figures, or other non-textual forms.
_________ 7. Emphasis is on discovery rather than proof.
_________ 8. The results are based on larger sample sizes that are representative of
the population.
_________9. It tends to be associated with emergent research design, using a wide range of
approaches
_________10. Researcher has a clearly defined research question to which objective
answers are sought.
