Explain the difference between quantitative and qualitative research design?
Basically quantitative is an objective form of analysis and research. This usually relies on mathematical formulas and statistics. You could think of quantitative as the quantity of research, and of research which is not about feelings or thought. Qualitative research, on the other hand, is far more subjective. It often focuses on feelings, or on individual cases, like case studies. It is often not quite as scientific.


That is the difference within a nut shell....
