Lesson
Importance of Quantitative Research
2 Across the Field
In Practical Research 2, is where the heart of interest lies on how can we also
discover Quantitative Research in the field that uses a broad variety of
methodologies, such as surveys, interviews and observation, developed in
disciplines such as in the field of education, sociology, anthropology, medicine, and
psychology. Whereas these disciplines see themselves as purely descriptive but it is
better in understanding on quantitative research, one must have a review on how we
can define research in general related to other areas of academic discipline,
economy, society, health status. Added to this, learn the values to study quantitative
research better.
People do research to find solutions, even tentative ones to any problems, in
order to improve or enhance ways of doing things, to disprove or provide a new
hypothesis or simply to find answers to questions or solutions in daily life. In natural
and social sciences, quantitative research is the systematic, empirical investigation
of observable phenomena via statistical and mathematical techniques.
(ABM) In the Field of Business: Research is an essential part of any business
that wants to offer products or services that are focused. Business decisions that
are based on good intelligence and good market research can minimize risk and
pay dividends and by making market research part and parcel of
the business process.
(GAS & HUMMS) In the Field of Education: Research will help to
understand any subject and its principals in much better and easier way which will
encounter new questions and search for answers of those questions. Research is not
always a concept that practitioners, managers and policy makers respect. Too often it
is seen as an academic activity conducted by others to the profession, not with the
profession and for teachers who are accountable, the public must have faith in the
profession and attitudes to education vary across many social groups so the
performance of teachers can be demonstrated through the publication of research
findings. Research methodologies give teachers the tools to analyze and make
informed decisions about their practice that leads to an expansion of knowledge and
discoveries in teaching and learning strategies across various cultural and
educational communities.
In the field of social sciences: Research deals with the behaviour of
people in their different roles, such consumers, competitors, producers, executives,
salespersons, leaders, workers, followers, teachers, students, opinion-makers, etc.
Research in social sciences deals with the systematic method of discovering new
facts or of verifying old facts, their sequence, inter-relationship, casual explanations
and the natural laws which cover them.
Sample Research Study in Education.

Quantitative research is used to populate statistics from a high volume sample
size to gain statistically valid results in customer insight. Generally, quantitative
customer research incorporates a survey-based approach to gain
feedback in relation to a populations ideas and opinions. It’s important to ensure a
suitable sample size is used to gain accurate and trustworthy results. To determine a
suitable sample size, refer to the confidence interval and confidence level
calculation. Quantitative Research on the other hand focuses more in counting and
classifying features and constructing statistical models and figures to explain what is
observed. (Fatima, H.,2019 )
A.Quantitative Research and Anthropology > Many discoveries in this field like
human behavior in the society, racial conflicts and human evolution have given
enormous contributions to the improvement of human life.
B.Quantitative Research and Communication > Researchers are often
interested in how an understanding of a particular communication phenomena
might be generalized to a larger population. Example: What communicative
behaviors are used to respond to co-workers displaying emotional stress?
C.Quantitative Research and Medicine >this tends to be predominantly
observational research based on surveys or correlational studies. > Experimental
research designs may enhance the quality of medical education.
D.Quantitative Research and Behavioral Science > the output of this research
focuses on how human behavior relates with another people and also the
individual differences that may affect human relations.
E.Quantitative Research in Educational and Psychology > Many educational
principles in understanding human behavior are the offshoot of this research.
F.Quantitative Research and Social Science >the method employed in this type
of quantitative social research are mostly typically the survey and the experiment.
Example: the study of DSWD regarding 4P’s
