research?
p3
a. Descriptive research p3

ANS: D p3
Quantitative research, the most frequently used method, is a formal, objective, systematic
p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3
methodology to describe variables, test relationships, and examine cause-and-effect
p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3
interactions. Quantitative research includes experimental research, which is the method for
p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3
testing cause-and-effect relationships between and among specific variables. Qualitative
p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3
research methods are used for explaining meanings and describing experiences in context.

the same level as the drain, checks all connections, and then notifies the physician, who

it, (2) selecting solutions to the problem, and (3) resolving the problem. Operational
p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3 p3
