studies are all examples of qualitative research techniques.
2. Differentiate quantitative and qualitative data? How are these data being gathered?
Qualitative data is non-statistical and is typically unstructured or semi-structured. This data isn’t
necessarily measured using hard numbers used to develop graphs and charts. Instead, it is categorized
based on properties, attributes, labels, and other identifiers. Qualitative data can be used to ask the
question “why.” It is investigative and is often open-ended until further research is conducted.
Generating this data from qualitative research is used for theorizations, interpretations, developing
hypotheses, and initial understandings.
Contrary to qualitative data, quantitative data is statistical and is typically structured in nature meaning
it is more rigid and defined. This data type is measured using numbers and values, making it a more
suitable candidate for data analysis. Whereas qualitative is open for exploration, quantitative data is
much more concise and close-ended. It can be used to ask the questions “how much” or “how many,”
followed by conclusive information.
