Quantitative Study

According to Tausendpfund (2018), qualitative research can be used to indicate the probability of rules based on repeated observations of individual cases. However, according to Tausendpfund (2018), qualitative research is not being able to conclusively prove these rules. According to Klapper, Konradt, Walter and Wolf (2007), qualitative research therefore tries to generate enough depth of understanding for complex real phenomena to derive hypotheses. According to Strauss (2004), these hypotheses are the link between qualitative research and quantitative research. A quantitative part within a mixed method design like this, according to Tausendpfund (2018) and Kuckartz (2014), serves the purpose of generalizing these results and obtaining more exact numbers of discovered differences.
