Qualitative and Quantitative Research

Qualitative is the opposite of quantitative research. There are collections and analyses of non-numerical information like audio, videos, and texts used to understand better experiences, concepts, and opinions better in qualitative research. Qualitative research can gather in-depth information about a given issue and generate advanced ideas for carrying out research. This type of research is commonly used in social sciences, humanities, sociology, anthropology, education, history, and health sciences (Elliott, 2018).

Quantitative research defines a laid-out investigation based on gathering data and performing statistics, computational, or mathematical techniques. This research type is based on collected information from potential and existing sources by use of samples, surveys, polls, and questionnaires. The outcome of quantitative data is mainly based on prediction. An excellent example in nursing is when a survey is conducted to determine the estimated time a doctor should take while attending to a patient from the moment they walk into a hospital. That kind of information can be obtained by questioning patients about their routines when visiting a hospital (Coorey et al., 2018).

As a result, qualitative research is more reliable and can give accurate information, unlike quantitative analysis. Qualitative research relies on collecting and analyzing data, while quantitative relies on surveys and predictions.
