Best practice guidelinesWASP (Write a Scientific Paper): Qualitative versus quantitative analyses
Section snippets
Paper
Quantitative and qualitative analyses and research are conventionally regarded as fundamentally different techniques. However, their objectives and applications overlap. The previous papers in this Write a Scientific Paper (WASP) Best Practice Guidelines (BPG) have only dealt with quantitative analysis techniques. This BPG set will focus on qualitative techniques, which often follow quantitative research in order to explore selected and interesting findings that emerge from the latter.
Acknowledgments
