Pregunta 2
Pregunta
A strength of using [blank_start]Quantitative[blank_end] data is the data can be easily [blank_start]analysed[blank_end] and compared between groups/participants and so allows the researcher to form [blank_start]valid conclusions[blank_end]. Another strength is that data collection tends to be highly valid and often uses [blank_start]objective[blank_end] measures and so cannot be misinterpreted.
A weakness of Quantitative data is that the method of [blank_start]measurement[blank_end] may limit participants' responses which will lack detail, therefore making the data less [blank_start]valid[blank_end]. This in turn makes it less useful as we cannot [blank_start]suggest[blank_end] why something has happened.
