Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Quantitative research is often associated with the positivist or empirical-analytic scientific tradition, which indeed draws heavily from the 19th-century thought of philosophers like Newton and Locke, emphasizing objectivity and the collection of tangible data. However, qualitative research is more aligned with interpretivism or constructivism, focusing on understanding human experiences, meanings, and the social construction of reality. This approach does not directly descend from the empirical and highly quantitative traditions of Newton and Locke, making choice B the correct answer as it does not commonly apply to both quantitative and qualitative research methodologies.
