qualitative survey
For example, in qualitative research you resort to a case study approach, while in quantitative research you may resort to survey method. Quantitative research largely deals with volumes of data collected from primary or secondary sources. Qualitative research will focus on descriptions, contents, views, perspectives and its analysis.
Qualitative means what is it while quantative means how much is there. Some examples of qualitative data might be whether a solution is of copper or iron or if a compound is formed with nitrate or carbonate. Quantative data could be the concentration of a solution or the mass present in a sample.
A survey may be both a qualitative or quantitative because it depends on the question you construct it. They may be qualitative (when you expect a answer by words ) or a quantitative (when you expect a answer by numbers)
Is qualitative research empirical?
These are part of the scientific method.
in mathematical statistics qualitative means not numbers so it has to be expressed in words e.g. a color quantative: means a number e.g. age.
