Resource summary
Quantitive Data
Easier to analyse than qualitative data because data is in numbers
this enables comparisons to be made between groups much more easily
Produces more objective data than qualititative as involves little or no interpretation
More likely to be tested for reliability which may lead to generalisability to other situations
For example counting words in a memory experiment is more measurable than asking open questions in an interview
Can be collected more quickly than qualitative data as it tends to use closed rather than open questions
