Determine whether a research paper is a qualitative or quantitative.
• Describe one health and one safety issue (select one issue from each community). Include supportive evidence from the literature to indicate the severity of the issue.
• Why is this participant observation an example of qualitative research?
• What are other data collection methods, both qualitative and quantitative, could you use to research the community health and safety problems?
• How can you tell if a study is qualitative or quantitative?
• Finally, how are theory, research, and practice advanced from qualitative and quantitative approaches (separately or combined)?
