- Statement II: Context sensitivity cannot be completely removed from qualitative data.
ABoth Statement I and Statement II are true ✓ Correct
BBoth Statement I and Statement II are false
CStatement I is true but Statement II is false
DStatement I is false but Statement II is true
Correct answer: (A) Both Statement I and Statement II are true — The answer is that both statements are true.
Explanation
★The answer is that both statements are true.
★Qualitative data draw their power from the rich social, historical and temporal context in which they are gathered, so Statement I is true.
★This context is bound up with the data and cannot be fully stripped away, so Statement II is true.
★The two statements together describe the context-bound nature of qualitative data.
★So both hold together.
★The data are not meant to be generalised out of their context.
★So the answer is that both statements are true.
