"Research can be conducted in several different ways. One of the main distinctions is whether the study is qualitative or quantitative. Qualitative research is helpful to explore and better understand people's emotions, values, personal experiences, thoughts and actions. Instead of percentages and measurements, it supplies non-numerical data, for example recording a patient's concerns about not taking a medicine compared to handling the possible side effects. In health care, researchers often use the qualitative approach to acquire more information on how people deal with chronic illnesses."Sample of Sources Used:
