Quantitative Versus Qualitative Research
• Quantitative research: – We are interested in reaching conclusions
based on:• Counting or measuring characteristics of the world
around us
![Page 10: Garner c1](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062406/5590d3371a28ab6f148b45b6/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Quantitative Versus Qualitative Research
• Qualitative research is based on observations that can be: – Written, spoken about, filmed, and
interpreted, but not so easily measured, counted;
• “Put into numbers,” or generalized about on the basis of statistical reasoning
• Unobtrusive & “Obtrusive” Research

Fieldwork
• A way of thinking and feeling that is unique to qualitative research and ethnography. – A major difference exists between work that is
done in labs, libraries, and offices;• And work that is done in the open, free, exciting,
and unpredictable terrain of “the field”

Understanding The Experiences Of Others
• A basic principle of qualitative and ethnographic research is the goal of: – Understanding the experiences of others &
not merely recording their opinions & behavior
• How our views, interests, & prejudgments were formed; recognize the influence of: – Our own background and experiences
