Qualitative, Quantitative and Difference Research Compiled  By - properly! Abstract The following brief  overview of the quantitative and qualitative research methodology describes the differences between these two major approaches to research. The philosophical and worldviews of each methodology is described, along with how  the differences in each methodologys basic assumptions influences the strategies that are implemented in order to accomplish research objectives. Furthermore, the report encompasses why one method is chosen over the  other, the basic parameters of the quantitative/qualitative debate and the fact that many researchers combine these methodologies in order to investigate their subject matter more thoroughly Qualitative, Quantitative and Difference  Quantitative and qualitative research methodologies are quite different, as each of these approaches to research are based on different philosophical perspectives, which underpin their modes of inquiry, as well  as the models and procedures that they employ to achieve research objectives (Kumar, 2005). The following examination of these two approaches to research focuses on the differences between the quantitative  and qualitative research methods. The quantitative versus qualitative debate has been ongoing for decades. For example, in 1994, Fred Kerlinger is quoted as having commented that "Theres no such  thing as qualitative data. Everything is either 1 or 0," while D.T. Campbell, another researcher, has stated that "all research ultimately has a qualitative grounding" (Barnes, et al, 2005). At
