you mean empirical?
It is a type of scientific study in which one seeks to find an answer to a question using predefined set of procedures. Qualitative data sampling involves collection of evidence and production of findings that were not considered previously in the study. It also explores beyond the immediate limits of the study involved.
A varable.
Galileo's first astronomical observations revealed several anomalies. He observed that Jupiter had four moons orbiting around it, which challenged the prevailing belief that everything in space revolved around the Earth. He also observed that Venus went through phases similar to the Moon, suggesting that it orbited around the Sun and not the Earth. These observations provided evidence to support the heliocentric model proposed by Copernicus.
A qualitative or subjective observation is an observation which uses evidence gathered from one of the five senses i.e. color, texture, taste, etc as opposed to a quantitative or objective observation which describes something using numbers.Examples of qualitative observations:"The coat is green.""The dog is soft.""The coffee is bitter."Examples of quantitative observations:"There are 4 computers in the classroom.""There are 7 cookies in the jar.""There are 5 stripes on her dress."
No, empirical evidence is based on observation and inference. Qualitative observation is an observation of the qualities of an object. Quantitative observation, on the other hand, is an observation based on some sort of numerical measurement of the object.
These are part of the scientific method.
Empirical research is a way of gaining knowledge by means of direct and indirect observation or experience. Empirical evidence (the record of one's direct observations or experiences) can be analyzed quantitatively or qualitatively. Through quantifying the evidence or making sense of it in qualitative form, a researcher can answer empirical questions, which should be clearly defined and answerable with the evidence collected (usually called data). Research design varies by field and by the question being investigated. Many researchers combine qualitative and quantitative forms of analysis to better answer questions which cannot be studied in laboratory settings, particularly in the social sciences and in education.found it in wikepedia
What evidence is gathered from observation
Sociologists use qualitative and quantitative research. Sociology is a science that like other sciences has evidence that can be touched and evidence that is intangible.
Quindlen uses statistical data, personal anecdotes, expert opinions, and examples from real-life situations to support and restate her claim. She presents a combination of quantitative and qualitative evidence to make a compelling argument for her position.
Qualitative evidence refers to non-numeric data that provides insights into people's beliefs, experiences, preferences, or behaviors. It is collected through methods such as interviews, observations, or open-ended survey responses, and is often used to understand complex social phenomena or explore individuals' perspectives in depth.
One type of qualitative research uses anecdotal evidence. Anecdotes are personal accounts/thoughts/feelings. This type of evidence cannot be generalized but can pave the way for further research.

Chicken wings
Qualitative: Description with your own point of view: Description with numbers, exact.ex: the table is blue; that would be qualitative data, because another person mite disagree and say it was red. all though if i measured the table and said it was 42cm, that would be quantitative, because im using numbers and its an exact measurement.
