TRUE. Write B if you think a statement is FALSE. (29-41)

Main Characteristics of Quantitative Approach

29. The data are usually gathered using more structure research instruments.
30. The result is based on larger sample sizes that are representative of the population
31. The research study can usually be replicated or repeated, given its high reliability.
32. The researcher has a clearly defined research question to which objective answers are sought.
33. All aspect of the study is carefully designed before data are collected.
34. Data are in the form of numbers and statistics.
35. The projects can be used to generalize concepts more widely, predict future results, or investigate causal
relationship.
36. The researcher uses questionnaires or other forms of research tools to collect numerical data.

Strengths of the Quantitative Approach

37. Quantitative approach involves a greater number of subjects and enables a broader study, as well as
enhancing the generalization of the results.
38. Study result are more objective and accurate.
39. Quantitative research, when the right procedure is used, can be replicated, as well as analyzed in
comparison with other similar works.
40. You can summarize vast sources of information and make comparisons across categories and over time.
41. Personal bias can be avoided y keeping a distance from participating subjects and employing facilitators
unknown to them.
