In social sciences the methods available for collecting data can be classified into two categories: qualitative and quantitative. - Qualitative research - generally used for exploratory purposes - examples include focus groups, in-depth interviews, and projective techniques - Quantitative research - generally used to draw conclusions - examples include surveys and questionnaires You can also use experiments and observation but the real answer is. 1.

There are a number of ways to describe a research design. For example, a study may be either quantitative or qualitative, depending on the type of data that is collected and the degree of mathematical rigor to which it is subjected. A qualitative study generally consists of literature surveys and experience surveys. A literature survey is simply a search through available journals, newspapers, magazines, documents and other publications. This is usually a good place to begin your research. After all, if someone has already researched your question then it doesn't make sense to reinvent the wheel. The experience survey is comprised of interviews of people who are experienced in the area that you are researching. These types of interviews are generally informal and unstructured, but researchers often develop a set of questions to use as a guide. It is to your advantage to keep the interviews unstructured in order to allow the expert to elaborate their ideas and opinions. It's likely that this type of interview will generate more questions than answers. Quantitative studies provide numerical data that is used to describe your research topic. If you are conducting marketing research, you might be asked to describe characteristics of typical users of a product. Some quantitative data that you might consider collecting include age, sex and level of education. Other examples of quantitative data include the percentage of people who can recognize your logo.

A qualitative observation has to do with things you can't count, "The fish has black scales" is a qualitative observation. A quantitative observation has to do with things you can count, "The fish has 125 scales" is a quantitative observation.

Quantitative data may be used to make a graph or table. Qualitative is easier to explain with numbers or a written description.

Qualitative and Quantitative determiners are used before nouns. Qualitative determiner is a describing word or adjective used before noun to show the quality of the noun. Eg.: Beautiful picture Beautiful - qualitative determiner or qualitative adjective Quantitative determiner is used before uncountable nouns to show the quantity of the noun. Eg.: A kilo of rice A glass of water A kilo of, A glass of - quantitative determiners rice, water - non count or uncountable nouns Note: Determiners are also known as Adjectives. Before the countable nouns we use Numerical Determiners. Eg.: Three apples Three - Numerical Determiner apples - Noun Hope I could help you out. All the Best!
A qualitative and a quantitative result can be used to identify the co-elution in GC-MS.
Quantitative observations usually uses tools such as interviews, telephone interviews, computer assisted personal interviewing (CAPI), questionnaires and web based questionnaires.

Quantitative forecasting tools are used to predict future figures and quantities such as sizes and lengths. Qualitative forecasting tools are used to predict what something in the future will be like in terms of things other than set figures. For instance, they could predict what type a future element will be; what color it will be; what the nature of it will be.
EXAMPLE: Painting Qualitative: Blue Paint, Gold Frame, Smells Musty, Texture Shows Oils were Used, Scene of boats on a river Quantitative: Cost is $300, Weighs 8.9 lbs, Painting is 10" by 14", Frame is 14" by 18", Surface Area is 140 Sq.
