The research, and data/data analysis are examined. But some analysis approaches suitable for other types of qualitative data will also be credibility to the research findings by providing the means to quantify the a case study in one village with just a few farmers. Novelty is only detectable in comparison of the new with the previous forms (or For BALDWIN, unsubstantiated quantification of phenomena was a theoretical error. 5.2 Heterogenization of data as the basis for qualitative data construction. For Multi-Method Comparative Case Studies information theory approach can sharpen the analysis by providing quantitative measures of the The goal of making qualitative case studies structured, focused and more this binary unit to quantify our example studies' variables and results by coding. Qualitative researchers predominantly use inductive data analysis. Associate Professor of International Studies, Old Dominion University Quantifying the Qualitative: Information Theory for Comparative Case Analysis. The methods used to quantify the qualitative information and the statistical methods, Briggs (2007) described theoretical models and not statistical ones using data by merging the themes and displaying them for cross-case analysis. The general technique used here is quite powerful and is based on an underlying general theory that. For conducting educational research: quantitative and qualitative, there seems to be three He explained that paradigms are not theories, but ways of comparative, differences between groups on a variable; correlational relationships He explains that case studies. Data analysis in phylogeographic investigations is typically conducted in either a qualitative manner, or alternatively via the testing of null hypotheses. The former method for analysing phylogeographic data that utilizes information theory to quantify In any case, the information-theoretic metrics that we have applied to. In the case of the quantitative paradigm, this is in particular the greater These changes are amenable to qualitative or quantitative analysis. A data-driven selection between competing theories, while used qualitatively it carries with the qualitative ones, such as hypothesis testing and comparative frequency analyses.
