Qualitative

Primary Discussion Response is due by Thursday (11:59:59pm Central), Peer Responses are due by Saturday (11:59:59pm Central).

Primary Task Response: Within the Discussion Board area, write 400–600 words that respond to the following questions with your thoughts, ideas, and comments. This will be the foundation for future discussions by your classmates. Be substantive and clear, and use examples to reinforce your ideas.

The discussion assignment for this week includes a review of your fellow classmates' research questions for their topic, survey questions, and hypothesis or statement of the problem for the research question. Review at least 1 student and provide feedback on what was done well and possible areas of improvement.

Last week you presented your research topic and shared ethical considerations for your selected topic. In developing your plan for the Unit 4 Individual Project, there are additional considerations such as the survey questions that will gather the information needed to complete your research study. There are two types of research questions- qualitative and quantitative.

Qualitative research questions are about human perceptions, descriptions, stories, or lived experiences. For example, do ABC IT employees assigned as full-time prefer to work remotely or to work in the office?

Quantitative research questions are numbers-based. For example, how does the amount of news intake correlate to anxiety levels?
