Investigación cuantitativa y cualitativa: algunas consideraciones
Main Article Content
Abstract
This work is limited to a reflection on quantitative and qualitative research based more on contextual parameters of both approaches than on reflections deduced from a group of particular studies. Today's society is global, interactive and in continuous technological advancement. Therefore, researchers will be conditioned when choosing one or another paradigm by their own training, the context, funding policies and technological resources.
