Criteria Qualitative Research
Definition It is a type of empathic,
empirical, exploratory, direct,
physical research. It helps you
understand reasons,
motivations, opinions, trends
that hide behind the more
quantitative data of quantitative
research.
Presentation of data The research paper is normally
prepared in narrative-style
extracts and quotes to allow
reality as it has been
experienced during the study
Generalization Involves identification of the
Weberian ideal types and
interpretation of reality
Type of analysis It is case base
Type of respondent The respondent is normally a
unique individual
Uniformity of Research instruments may vary.
detection instrument They are not necessarily the
same
Search design The search design is without a
structure i.e. it is open and is in
search of unexpected options. It
gets modified with progress.
Researcher/ Interaction is necessary. It is
respondent necessary that empathy arises
interaction between the researcher and
respondent.
Relationship with The subject has to be an active
studied environment subject. The process takes a
naturalistic approach where
space and actions are analysed
in the present time during the
research.
Concept They seek to find the character
of uniqueness
Theory/ research ratio Inductive setting that is
articulated in the context of
Quantitative Research
It is a type of experimental research
that helps you quantify, use
numeric data or just data that can
then be easily transformed into
statistics, and it measures
behaviour, opinions and attitudes
of a large sample of respondents.
The research paper normally is
prepared containing tables and
graphs, statics, analysis and
comparison with data obtained and
data from past years
Individual fragmentation,
correlation between variables,
conceptual unit in the random
model.
It is variable based using
mathematical and statistical
techniques
The respondent is normally a
variable individual
Research instruments are
standardized, they remain constant
throughout the whole research
process.
The search design is of a closed
structure and is planned in advance
The research is almost absent. The
interviewer must be warm and
human but must not interact outside
the questionnaire.
The subject is a passive subject.
The process takes an experimental
approach where the subject is not
responsive
Definitive and operative, they are
the theory and are converted from
the beginning into variables.
Sequential phases, based on a
deductive approach that is
 “discovery”, the researcher
rejects the formulation of
theories. Theory and research
work simultaneously.
Scope of results It is limited to a specified
number of cases
Methodology It involves observation of the
respondent in the focus room,
interviews with privilege
witnesses.
articulated in the context of
“justification”. The theory precedes
the research.
Is covers a broader scope with
significant numbers and
representativity
Involves use of structured
questionnaires for CATI, CAWI or
PAPI.
