QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH

Lesson 4 : KINDS OF QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH

MELCS : The learner describes characteristics, strengths, weaknesses, and kinds
of quantitative research. (CS_RS12-Ia-c-1)

KINDS OF QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH:

1. Descriptive research design is a type of research design that aims to
systematically obtain information to describe a phenomenon, situation, or
population.
2. Correlational research design investigates relationships between two variables
(or more) without the researcher controlling or manipulating any of them. It is
applicable for the test of significant relationship, effect, influence, and impact of
variables.
3. Comparative research aimed to test the significant difference of the two
different variable under the independent variable.
4. Quasi-Experimental research design involves the test for significant difference
between the pre-implementation and the post-implementation to determine the
effectiveness of a tested intervention.
5. Experimental research design is applicable for Science Investigatory Project
(SIP) where it seeks for the significant difference of the subject as compared
between before and after the implementation.

HOW TO DETERMINE THE APPROPRIATE KINDS OF RESEARCH / RESEARCH

DESIGN?
By observing the identified research problems (or “Statement of the Problem
(SOP) / Research Questions), it will serve as a clue to classify the research design that
is align and appropriate on the identified research problems.
Example, if the research problems are…
 What is the extent of involvement in online games among students?
 What is the level of academic performance among students?
 Is there a significant effect of involvement in online games on the
academic performance among the students?
 Is there a significant difference of the involvement in online games when
the data compared based on the students’ gender?
 Then, the research designs are…

FINAL ANSWER :MIXED RESEARCH DESIGN

ACTIVITY 3: RESEARCH DESIGN

Directions: Based on the research problems identified from ACTIVITY 2, the students
are going to identify the research design per problems. afterwards, they are going to
determine the final answer of the research design for the entire problems.
