    1. Quantitative research uses statistically analyzed numerical data to investigate observable phenomena in an objective and systematic manner. 2. It is characterized by large sample sizes, visual data presentation, faster data analysis and collection, generalizable and reliable data, and replication. Its strengths include replicable findings, establishing cause and effect, and predicting outcomes. 3. Weaknesses include an inability to explore problems in depth, lack of comprehensive explanations, and rigid designs that limit responses. Common quantitative designs are descriptive, correlational, ex post facto, quasi-experimental, and experimental.

    MARITEL G. DAWA,PhD
    Difference between Quantitative and
    Qualitative Research
    • qualitative research is more of describing a
    phenomenon in a narrative; hence, the data
    collected can be in the form of words, images,
    or transcripts taken from a small sample
    • quantitative research, a more formal,
    objective, and systematic approach to
    obtaining answers to a question or problem of
    the study
    Quantitative Research

    • Quantitative research uses scientifically


    collected and statistically analyzed data to
    investigate observable phenomena.
    • uses a scientific method in designing and
    collecting numerical data. It will undergo statistical
    analysis like Pearson’s r, t-test and Analysis of
    Variance (ANOVA) for analysis.
    • data obtained must be numerical and quantifiable
    Characteristics of Quantitative Research

    1. LARGE SAMPLE SIZE


    2. OBJECTIVE
    3. VISUAL RESULT PRESENTATION
    4. FASTER DATA ANALYSIS
    5. GENERALIZED DATA
    6. FAST DATA COLLECTION
    7. RELIABLE DATA
    8. REPLICATION
    Strengths of Quantitative Research

    1. Quantitative research can be replicated or


    repeated.
    2. Findings are generalizable to the
    population.
    3. Conclusive establishment of cause and
    effect
    4. Numerical and quantifiable data can be
    used to predict outcomes
    Strengths of Quantitative Research

    5. Fast and easy data analysis using


    statistical software.
    6. Fast and easy data gathering
    7. Very objective
    8. Validity and reliability can be established
    Weaknesses of Quantitative Research

    1. It lacks the necessary data to explore a


    problem or concept in depth.
    2. It does not provide comprehensive
    explanation of human experiences.
    3. Some information cannot be described by
    numerical data such as feelings, and beliefs.
    4. The research design is rigid and not very
    flexible.
    Weaknesses of Quantitative Research

    5. The participants are limited to choose only


    from the given responses.
    6. The respondents may tend to provide
    inaccurate responses.
    7. A Large sample size makes data
    collection more costly.
    Kinds of Quantitative Research

    Descriptive design is used to describe a


    particular phenomenon by observing it as it
    occurs in nature.
    The goal of descriptive research is only to
    describe the person or object of the study.
    Kinds of Quantitative Research

    The correlational design identifies the


    relationship between variables. Data is
    collected by observation since it does not
    consider the cause and effect for example, the
    relationship between the amount of physical
    activity done and student academic
    achievement.
    Kinds of Quantitative Research

    Ex post facto design is used to investigate a


    possible relationship between previous events and
    present conditions. The term “Ex post facto”,
    means after the fact, looks at the possible causes
    of an already occurring phenomenon. Just like the
    first two, there is no experimental manipulation in
    this design. An example of this is “how does the
    parent’s academic achievement affect the children
    obesity?
    Kinds of Quantitative Research

    A quasi-experimental design is used to


    establish the cause and effect relationship of
    variables. Although it resembles the
    experimental design, the quasi-experimental
    has lesser validity due to the absence of
    random selection and assignment of subjects.
    Kinds of Quantitative Research

    Experimental design like quasi- experimental is


    used to establish the cause and effect relationship
    of two or more variables. This design provides a
    more conclusive result because it uses random
    assignment of subjects and experimental
    manipulations. For example, a comparison of the
    effects of various blended learning to the reading
    comprehension of elementary pupils.
