Zusammenfassung der Ressource

Quantitive Data
  1. Easier to analyse than qualitative data because data is in numbers
    1. this enables comparisons to be made between groups much more easily
    2. Produces more objective data than qualititative as involves little or no interpretation
      1. More likely to be tested for reliability which may lead to generalisability to other situations
        1. For example counting words in a memory experiment is more measurable than asking open questions in an interview
          1. Can be collected more quickly than qualitative data as it tends to use closed rather than open questions
