quantitative methodology
Question One
From the bibliography of your proposed dissertation study, select a peer-reviewed journal article that was done with a quantitative methodology. Cite the article and summarize the study in one paragraph. Then categorize it according to each of the following dimensions:
- Experimental, quasi-experimental, or non-experimental
- Descriptive, predictive, or explanatory
- Retrospective, cross-sectional, or longitudinal
Why did you categorize the article as you did? Do articles in your field of interest commonly fall into this category? Why or why not?
Question Two
What are the primary factors that make it more challenging to conduct experimental studies in the field of education or leadership? Why are these significant? How do these factors affect your own research design for the dissertation study?
