Reflection
Enumerate possible advantages and disadvantages of utilizing positivistic and
phenolomogical approaches in research. (30 pts.)

Positivistic

 Wide coverage of the range of situations

 Can be fast and economical
 May be relevant to policy decisions when statistics are exaggerated in
large samples

 Methods tends to be flexible and artificial

 Not very effective in understanding processes or the significance people
attach to actions
 Not very helpful in generating theories

Phenomenological

 Can look at change processes over time

 Help to understand people’s meaning
 Help to adjust to new issues and ideas as they emerge
 Data gathering can take up a great deal of time and resources
 The analysis and interpretation of data may be difficult
 May be harder than positivist approach to control pace, progress, and end
points.
