How can I find a qualitative or quantitative research article?
Answer
You can use our library's databases to search for these kinds of research studies:
- Try adding "qualitative" or "quantitative" to your keywords when you're searching. For example:
- If you have a particular research methodology in mind (e.g. survey, experiment, case study, etc.) you can include keywords to describe it in your search. For example:
- In some databases, you can specify the type of study you would like to search for using advanced search options.
- Limiting your search to "scholarly" or "peer-reviewed" journals will also help.
We recommend that you take some time to learn about quantitative and qualitative research methodologies, so that you can search more effectively. The resources below are good places to start:
