Explanation

Quantitative research is mainly concerned with measurement, causality, and replication.

Measurement turns concepts into numbers for precise analysis.

Context and its rich meaning are the concern of qualitative research.

Causality seeks to show one variable produces change in another.

Replication allows others to repeat a study and check its findings.

Generalization from sample to population is a further quantitative goal.
