5. Choosing the Right
Approach
Understanding Qualitative and Quantitative Methodologies
Qualitative methodologies focus on
exploring phenomena through subjective
data, emphasizing depth of
understanding and context rather than
numerical measurement, ideal for
complex social issues.
Qualitative Methodologies
Quantitative methodologies utilize
numerical data and statistical analysis to
test hypotheses, enabling researchers to
establish patterns, correlations, and
causations within their studies effectively.

6. Sampling Techniques
Probability vs Non-Probability Sampling Methods
Probability sampling involves selecting
participants randomly, ensuring that every
individual has an equal chance of being
chosen, which enhances the reliability of
results.
Probability Sampling
Non-probability sampling selects
participants based on non-random
criteria, often relying on the researcher's
judgment, which may introduce bias but is
practical in many scenarios.
