Quantitative research is best describe as follows:

• it highlights numerical analysis of data

• it is concerned with numbers and its relationship with events

• it is an objective, systematic and empirical investigation of observable phenomena through the use of computational techniques

• all of these

Quantitative research is characterized by the following except one:

• Clearly defined research questions

• It has numerical data

• it has structured research instrument

• It is subjective in approach

Quantitative research can be replicated means:

• other researchers can copy the data and results.

• the methods of research can be repeated to verify the findings in another settings

• researcher can reproduce the results and findings for dissemination

• the research study is duplicated by students without permission of the author

• it is objective

• it requires small number of sample

• it is real and unbiased

• it uses statistical analysis

Quantitative research has following disadvantages except one:

• it is costly

• constextual factors to help interpret the results are usually ignored

• Limited population sample is required

• sensitive information are difficult to gather using structured research instrument
