Hi, I'm taking an undergrad course in social research methods. I have the following questions and have to state whether they are qualatative or quantative. HEre are the questions and what I think they are. Can anyone tell me if I'm correct? THANKS!
#1 - Is environmental dumping more likely to occur in impoverished neighborhoods compared to middle neighborhoods? (I think thit is quantative question)
#2 - Do children raised in single parent families have greater academic difficulties than children raised in two parent families? (I think thit is quantative question)
#3 - How does motivation lead to success in the workforce? (I think thit is qualatative question) |

Disagree,I think these are all qualatative questions, coz there are no numbers/amounts involved.
If one would ask what the IQ difference between two sort of people it would be qualitative, due the measurment of IQ's is possible in numbers
