4. Which is analyzed statistically? Which is not?

iii. Abstraction

What is Qualitative Research?

is expressed in numbers and graphs. It is used to test or confirm theories and
assumptions.

What is Quantitative Research?

is expressed in words. It is used to understand concepts, thoughts, or experiences. This
type of research enables you to gather in-depth insights on topics that are not well
understood.

Quantitative studies rely on numerical or measurable data. In contrast, qualitative
studies rely on personal accounts or documents that illustrate in detail how people
think or respond within society.
