Abstract

Quantitative research requires considerable insights into theory, methods and reality. This chapter illustrates how a doctoral project using quantitative methods unfolds, from designing research taking into account complex relationships and selecting data collection techniques to optimising reliability, validity and generalisability and using sophisticated software for data analysis and hypothesis testing.
