1. What is quantitative research?

is an objective, systematic empirical in#vestigation of observable phenomena
through the use of compu#tational techniques. It highlights numerical analysis of
data hop#ing that the numbers yield unbiased results that can be general#ized to
some larger population and explain a particular observa#tion. Simply, quantitative
research is concerned with numbers
and its relationship with events.
2.What are the characteristics of quantitative research?Discuss the strengths and
weaknesses of quantitative
research

CHARACTERISTICS OF QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH

-OBJECTIVE.
-CLEARLY DEFINED RESEARCH QUESTIONS.
-STRUCTURED RESEARCH INSTRUMENTS.
-NUMERICAL DATA.
-LARGE SAMPLE SIZES.
-REPLICATION
3.Discuss the strengths and weaknesses of quantitative
research

1. It is objective. The most reliable and valid way of concluding re#sults, giving
way to a new hypothesis or to disproving it. Because of
bigger number of the sample of a population, the results or generali#zations are
more reliable and valid. Since it provides numerical data,
it can’t be easily misinterpreted.
2. The use of statistical techniques facilitates sophisticated analyses
and allows you to comprehend a huge amount of vital characteristics
of data.
3. It is real and unbiased. If the research is properly designed it fil#ters out
external factors, and so can be seen as real and unbiased.
4. The numerical data can be analyzed in a quick and easy way. By
employing statistically valid random models, findings can be gen#eralized to the
population about which information is necessary.
5. Quantitative studies are replicable. Standardized approaches al#low the study to
be replicated in different areas or over time with
formulation of comparable findings.
6. Quantitative experiments are useful for testing the results gained
by a series of qualitative experiments, leading to a final answer, and
narrowing down of possible directions to follow.

1.It highlights numerical analysis of data hoping that the numbers

yield unbiased results that can be generalized to some larger popu#lation and
explain a particular observation.
#QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH
2 It suggests that the data concerned can be analyzed in terms of
number
#QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH
3 This kind of research derives conclusion from observations and
manifestations that already occurred in the past and now compared
to some dependent variables
#EX -POST FACTO OR CASUAL COMPARATIVE
4 It describes the norm level of characteristics for a given behavior
NOrmative
5. In this design, the researcher can collect more data, either by
scheduling more observations or finding more existing measures.
#QUASI EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN
6.. It is conducted by researchers whose aim would be to find out the
direction, associations and/or relationship between different vari#ables or groups
of respondents under study
#CORRELATION
7 It refers to the overall strategy that you choose in order to int
grate the different components of the study in a coherent and logical
way, thereby ensuring you will effectively address the research prob
lem
#RESEACH DESIGN
8 It controls for both time-related and group-related threats. Two
features mark true experiments: two or more differently treated
groups; and random assignment to these groups.
TRUE EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN
9 All variables in the study can contribute to the over-all prediction
in an equation that adds together the predictive power of
each identified variable
MULTI REGRESSION PREDICTION STUDIES
10. ts main purpose is to observe, describe and document aspects
of a situation as it naturally occurs and sometimes to serve
as a star............ development
