Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
A key distinction in quantitative studies is between experimental research, in which researchers actively intervene to test an intervention or therapy, and nonexperimental (or observational) research, in which researchers make observations of existing phenomena without intervening. Grounded theory seeks to describe and understand key social psychological processes that occur in a social setting. Phenomenology focuses on the lived experiences of humans and is an approach to gaining insight into what the life experiences of people are like and what they mean. In quantitative research, the empirical phase involves collecting data; and preparing data for analysis (e.g., coding data). Population-based and sample-based research are examples of types of research studies.
