and qualitative date are done separately, while in sequential approach the analysis of the first step of the study is used to inform the second step. For example, in sequential approach, if the first phase is qualitative design, then data analysis and the findings will guide data collection in the second phase (e.g., quantitative phase). 4. Due to lack of available software for concurrent or sequential approaches, matrix or discussion can be useful for comparing the results from qualitative and quantitative
participants (and sites) in both quantitative and qualitative research and to the sampling strategies employed with each of the designs” (p. 75). Creswell defines sampling procedure in mixed methods in relation to two central issues which are: 1) how to select a valid sample size for both quantitative and qualitative research designs in relation to the research question asked, and 2) most importantly, how to integrate quantitative and qualitative results in relation to the used mixed methods designed
quantitative and qualitative methods are mixed or integrated in the research process (Greene, Caracelli, & Graham, 1989; Tashakkori & Teddlie, 1998; Creswell et al., 2003). Mixing can occur at the beginning stage of the study when the researcher is formulating the quantitative and qualitative research (Teddlie & Tashakkori, 2003), and integration can be done at the interpretation stage of the quantitative and qualitative results (Onwuegbuzie & Teddlie, 2003). The quantitative and qualitative phases are connected

these frameworks cover the use of social media technology in the practice of curation journalism. It would involve an excavation of qualitative data from informants within the research’s subjects, those are journalists of Kompas.com, Tempo.co and Viva.co.id, three online media in Indonesia. In relation to that, I include this study into a paradigm in the field of qualitative research. This option was taken under consideration the social benefits within this research, which I believe will enrich the information
Critiquing of a Qualitative and Quantitative Study The purpose of this paper will be to present the contrasts in the type of information that was gained while reviewing two studies. The studies reviewed were a qualitative study and a quantitative study. The general advantages and disadvantages of the two types of studies will also be presented. Qualitative and quantitative studies both have a place in research, even though the two study designs take a very different approach to research. Lastly
Initial post Comparing Qualitative and Quantitative Approaches Researchers often times are faced with the decision of choosing a methodology of research; either Quantitative or Qualitative that they think best fits their study and objectives. This choice is guarded by the topic of study, the advantages and disadvantages, and the strengths and weaknesses of using either one or the other type of the methodologies. Researchers are sometimes using Quantitative and Qualitative research methodologies interchangeably
In qualitative research, truthfulness, authenticity, and quality all refer to trustworthiness (Schmidt & Brown, 2015). In other words, trustworthiness is the amount of trust and confidence one can have in the results (Schmidt & Brown, 2015). To obtain trustworthiness, credibility, transferability, dependability, and confirmability must be met (Schmidt & Brown, 2015). Credibility is demonstrated when the research is authentic and truthful and the results are believable and make sense (Schmidt &
Quantitative and Qualitative Research Questions and Hypothesis Yasmine Swindle Revised Problem Statement– Quantitative Study Jung (2007) found that general education teacher’s attitudes toward the integration of students with disabilities reflect a lack of confidence both in their own instructional skills and in the quality of support personnel currently provides. General and special education teachers are placed in inclusive classroom settings for the betterment of the student; however, planning
