Qualitative and Quantitative Methods
Using the databases and the Research Methods research guide in the
Ashford University Library, locate and read peer-reviewed articles about
the features of qualitative research and quantitative research. Also read
the full text of the study you selected in Week One. Differentiate
between qualitative and quantitative research methods and terminology.
Specify which approach is used in the study. Explain whether the study is
qualitative or quantitative by citing specific clues from the article,
such as sample size, data collection techniques, the nature of the data
collected, or the data analysis techniques used. Using information in the
instructor guidance and Chapter 2 of the textbook, determine whether the
research study you selected is non-experimental or experimental. Explain
your reasoning.
