CONTENT STANDARD 1. the characteristics, strengths, weaknesses, and kinds of quantitative research
2. the importance of quantitative research across fields
3. the nature of variables
The learners should be able to decide on suitable quantitative research in different areas of interest
PERFORMANCE STANDARD
MOST ESSENTIAL LEARNING Describes characteristics, strengths, weaknesses, and kinds of quantitative research
COMPETENCIES CS_RS12-Ia-c-1
Research is a careful, detailed and systematic study of a specific problem, concern, or issue to establish facts This is best accomplished
by turning the issue into a question, with the intent of the research to answer the question.
Practical research means actual doing or using of something rather than theories and ideas. It involves inquiry methods and
immersion activities in order to achieve the correct information.
Types of Research
1. Qualitative- used to gain an understanding of underlying reasons, opinions, and motivations. Used in social science and
natural sciences
2. Quantitative- deals in numbers, logic, and an objective stance. Quantitative research focuses on numeric and unchanging
data and detailed, convergent reasoning rather than divergent reasoning. Used in psychology, marketing and political science
1. Causal-comparative research attempts to determine the cause or consequences of differences that already exist between or
among groups of individuals.
a. Female and male employees and their job satisfaction
b. Gender causes on differences in abilities
2. Correlational research determines the extent of a relationship between two or more variables using statistical data.
a. Relationship between intelligence and friendliness
b. Student’s hours of study and their stress level
3. Descriptive research provides systematic information about a phenomenon.
a. The attitudes of scientists regarding global warming
b. Impacts of Qatari diplomatic crisis on OFWs
4. Evaluation research provide a means to judge actions and activities in terms of values, criteria and standards
a. Performance of newly-hired SH teachers in MMC for S.Y. 2017-2018
b. Water quality assessment of Boac River
5. Experimental research uses the scientific method to establish the cause-effect relationship among a group of variables
a. Levels of heavy metal bioaccumulation of Nypa fruticans from Boac River
b. Solar purification for water potability
6. A survey is a brief interview or discussion with individuals about a specific topic
a. Acceptance of Boakenos to Boac cityhood
b. Approval rate for Duterte Cabinet members
Strengths
Weaknesses
1. Business- estimates consumer attitudes and behavior, market sizing, and marketing tactics
2. Political science- measures political behavior and attitudes of citizens and politicians
3. Psychology- measures human attributes/beahvior and analyzes psychological processes
4. Medicine- measures clinical and methodologic standards in medicinal prescription and composition and laboratory
experimentations
5. Economics- evaluates economic behavior and designs economic policies and techniques
6. Demographics- discover patterns, associations, correlations, and other features of a population
7. Education- discover solutions to issues in educational research, assessment, and program evaluation and curriculum
implementation
QUESTION:
What are the differences of Quantitative and Qualitative research? (30 points)
Kinds of Quantitative Research
1. Causal-comparative research
attempts to determine the cause or
consequences of differences
that already exist between or
among groups of individuals.
a. Female and male employees
and their job satisfaction
b. Gender causes on differences in
abilities
2. Correlational research
determines the extent of a
relationship between two or more
variables
using statistical data.
a. Relationship between
intelligence and friendliness
b. Student’s hours of study and
their stress level
3. Descriptive research provides
systematic information about a
phenomenon.
a. The attitudes of scientists
regarding global warming
b. Impacts of Qatari diplomatic
crisis on OFWs
4. Evaluation research provide a
means to judge actions and
activities in terms of values,
criteria
and standards
a. Performance of newly-hired SH
teachers in MMC for S.Y. 2017-
2018
b. Water quality assessment of
Boac River
5. Experimental research uses
the scientific method to
establish the cause-effect
relationship
among a group of variables
a. Levels of heavy metal
bioaccumulation of Nypa fruticans
from Boac River
b. Solar purification for water
potability
6. A survey is a brief interview or
discussion with individuals about a
specific topic
a. Acceptance of Boakenos to
Boac cityhood
b. Approval rate for Duterte
Cabinet members
Strengths
1. Fast speed data collection
(sampling methods)
2. Findings can be generalized (if
sample is from a population)
3. Easy to analyze data (use of
statistical data)
4. Consistent and reliable data
(use of research manipulations—
experiment, surveys etc)
5. Can be anonymous (for
sensitive topic)
Weaknesses
1. Requires a large number of
respondents
2. Costly and expensive
3. Secondary data may be
unavailable
4. Many info are difficult to
answer (sensitive topic)
5. More structured research
instruments
