characteristics of quantitative research 01 Large Sample Size Quantitative research 02 Objectivity is commonly used in natural sciences research problems 03 Concise Visual Presentation because of the following 04 Faster Data Analysis characteristics: 05 Generalized Data 06 Fast and Easy Data Collection Quantitative research 07 Reliable Data is commonly used in natural sciences research problems 08 High Replicability because of the following characteristics: large sample size To obtain more meaningful statistical result, the data must come from a large sample size. objectivity Data gathering and analysis of results are done accurately, objectively, and are unaffected by the researcher’s intuition and personal guesses. concise visual representation Data is numerical which makes presentation through graphs, charts, and tables possible and with better conveyance and interpretation. faster data analysis The use of a statistical tools gives way for a less time- consuming data analysis. Data taken from a sample can be generalized applied to the population if sampling is done accordingly, i.e., data sufficient size and random samples were taken. fast and easy data collection Quantitative research uses standardized research instruments that allow the researcher to collect data from a large sample size efficiently. For instance, a single survey form can be administered simultaneously to collect various measurable characteristics like age, gender, socio-economic status, etc. reliable data Data is taken and analyzed objectively from a sample as a representative of the population, making it more credible and reliable for policymaking and decision making. high replicability The Quantitative method can be repeated to verify findings enhancing its validity, free from false or immature conclusions.
