Introductory Message
Welcome!
The Self-Learning Package for Senior High School is developed to guide you
our dear learners to meet the standards set by the K to 12 Curriculum.
The Self-Learning Package is developed to help you, dear learner, in your needs
to continue learning even if you are not in school. This learning material aims to pri-
marily provide you with meaningful and engaging activities for independent learning.
Being an active learner, carefully read and understand to follow the instructions giv-
en.
REMEMBER ….
To answer the given exercises, questions and assessment, USE your Activity Note-
book or Answer Sheet. When you are DONE, wait for the teacher/volunteer to collect
your activity notebook/ answer sheet.

QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH
Most Essential Learning Competency:
Describe characteristics, strengths,
weakness, and kinds of quantitative
research (CS_RS12-Ia-c-1)
Ready to Launch!
In this module, your will learn that quantitative research design use numbers
in concluding generalizations about a given research problem. It uses statistical analy-
sis in stating conclusions. It is the most reliable and valid way of concluding results
because it uses large number of sample from a population.
There are different types of quantitative research designs and could be classified
as descriptive, correlational, quasi-experimental, and experimental. These designs re-
fers to the different strategies that is appropriate in order to integrate the different com-
ponents and variables of your research study. These methods uses objective
measurements collected through surveys, polls, and experiments.
Try This!
Task 1. Read each research topic/title and identify if it is QUALITATIVE or
QUANTITATIVE kind of research. Write QUALITATIVE or QUANTITATIVE on
your answer sheet .
3. Meth-
ods include field research,
case study, and secondary analysis
Quantitative methods are those that deal with measurable data. It is the data that is
codified, meaning:
It has an amount that can be directly measured.
The amount is with respect to some known units of measurement.
The units are known so comparisons of measurements are possible.
The comparisons are numerically based.
Results are based and judged on such data comparisons.
Quantitative methods are often used in technical fields, such as in sciences and
engineering.
Using quantitative methods properly are key to your success in these areas!
Four Types of Quantitative Research
1. Descriptive Design
-Seeks to describe the current status of a variable or phenomenon
-Researcher does not begin with a hypothesis, but typically develops one after the data
is collected
-Data collection is mostly observational in nature
II. Correlational Design
- Explores the relationship between variables using statistical analyses
However, it does not look for cause and effect therefore, it is mostly observation in
terms of data collection
III. Quasi-Experimental Design
- (often referred to as Causal-Comparative) seeks to establish a cause-effect relation-
ship between two or more variables
- the researchers do not manipulate the independent variable
- control groups are identified and exposed to the variable
- results are compared with results from the control group and the group exposed to
the variable
IV. Experimental Designs
- “true experimentation”
- use the scientific method to establish cause-effect relationship among a group of vari-
ables in a research study
-The effects of the independent variable on the dependent variable are collected and
analysed for a relationship.
Analysis
Task 3. Provide three research questions and determine the type of Research Design. Copy and
write your answers on your answer sheet.
Example:

Abstraction and Generalization
Quantitative methods are those that deal with data that could be
measured.
It can be directly measured, the amount is always with respect to
known units of measurements, it is always numerically measura-
ble and numerically based.
Task 4. Make your official hashtag for this module. Write your hashtag by completing
the statement. Write your answers on your answer sheet.
