Strengths of Qualitative Research DesignsIn depth studyGreat for new areas in which there are no
identified measurable variablesFlexible – go were the research takes youUses multiple sources of data

Weaknesses of Qualitative Research Designs

Weaknesses of Qualitative Research DesignsTime consumingCan be difficult to find sources of informationRequires creativity to find and retrieve
information from sources of dataRequires organizational and intuitive skill to
categorize and analyze data

patterns of variables related to a problem

Quantitative Research DesignsObservation—Count & measure—in terms of
numbers. Done with the help of check list to count objects & rating scale to measure events.
Correlation—Focuses on differences in the value of one variable & how it relates to difference in other characteristics. It measures characteristic features of one or two groups. It does not indicate that one variable causes another.
Developmental—Focuses on people as they grow older.
Survey Research—Participants(group) will choose from a set of responses for each question.

Strengths of Quantitative Research Designs

Strengths of Quantitative Research Designs Excellent for identifying statistical
relationships between variablesClear guidelines for conducting research
and analyzing dataMultiple statistical analysis toolsValidity and Reliability of results can be
estimated statistically

Weaknesses of Quantitative Research DesignsRequires knowledge of statistical analysisNumbers can appear more convincing than is
really aptCareful planning needed to effectively gather
numerical data

Step 4 Research DesignsMixed DesignsCombine aspects of qualitative and quantitative
designsVery common
Actually there are few purely qualitative research studies, because most include some basic
descriptive data

What do researchers consider in Choosing Research Designs?
![Page 25: Sridhar Rajappan. Agenda Questions about what we have covered so far? Key Terms Comparison of research designs Preview of unit 6](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070411/56649f3c5503460f94c5b543/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Choosing Research DesignsDepends on purpose of researchData availableHow results are expected to be usedRealistic constraints including fundingEthical issues must be considered
![Page 26: Sridhar Rajappan. Agenda Questions about what we have covered so far? Key Terms Comparison of research designs Preview of unit 6](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022070411/56649f3c5503460f94c5b543/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Scientific Research Process Step 4: How to Choose A Research Design?Literature review: sufficient info?
No - QualitativeYes - Based on purpose, etc.
Data resources currently available?No – qualitative OR quantitative by creating a tool
to collect original dataYes - Based on purpose, etc.
Program exists or can be developed?No – qualitative to identify oneNo – mixed design: qualitative to identify or develop
a program and then quantitative to test itYes – Quantitative or Mixed design based on
purpose, etc. (Leedy and Ormrod, 2010)

Scientific Research Process Step 4 Research Design Categories
(Neil, 2007)
Qualitative Quantitative
Aim: Complete, detailed description
Aim: Classify features, count them, construct statistical models to help explain what is observed
Researcher may only know roughly in advance what he/she is looking for
Researcher knows clearly in advance what he/she is looking for
Design choice in early phases of research projects
Design choice latter phases of research projects

Scientific Research Process Step 4 Research Design Categories
Qualitative Quantitative
Design emerges as the study unfolds
All aspects of the study are carefully designed before data is collected.
Researcher is data gathering instrument
Researcher uses tools, such as questionnaires or equipment to collect numerical data
Data is in the form of words, pictures or objects
Data is in the form of numbers and statistics
(Neil, 2007)
