Question

A physician conducts a survey among 100 patients suffering from migraine headaches to assess the range of headache severity among his patients. What kind of data analysis would he apply to interpret the results obtained from this survey?
A) Quantitative and descriptive
B) Quantitative and inferential
C) Qualitative and descriptive
D) Qualitative and inferential

Answer 1

The correct answer should be D) Qualitative and inferential

That is because he does not use quantity, but rather the quality of the migraines to create an opinion on the matter. The severity helps him infer what needs to be done.
