Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Qualitative results are based on descriptions, observations or interpretations and generally do not involve numerical measurements or statistical analysis, which is the hallmark of quantitative research. Therefore, qualitative results are very different from quantitative results. Qualitative research often uses non-parametric statistics, which do not assume the data is normally distributed or has equal variances. However, the question does not ask about non-parametric statistics specifically, so option D (different from parametric statistics) is correct.
