...Quantitative and Qualitative Research Subject Area Academic Level Name Comparison of Quantitative and Qualitative Research In quantitative research, focus is on the quantity, the amount or number of the material in terms of measurements or estimates. There is a need to quantify the data be it attitudes, behaviors, opinions and other variables. The data used for this research is one that can be formulated or presented using patterns. In addition, this data can be manipulated by use of formulae. The results can work as input in usable statistics. Qualitative research, on the other hand, is used in an appreciative or exploratory way. It dwells into problems with the aim of developing trends, ideas or hypothesis for a research question. Quality is used to refer to an attribute or something that cannot be measured like color, texture, reason, opinion, motivation and others (Yilman, 2013). Quantitative data gathering methods are more planned and organized than qualitative data gathering methods due to the nature of the data being handled. If I had to conduct a study, I would select the quantitative. It is easier to gather data for the quantitative research since the majority of the methods used here follow an organized and planned format. Gelo, Braakmann and Benetka (2008) agree that it is easier to present the results from this research by use of statistics and graphs which are easier to be interpreted by other people. If I had to conduct a qualitative study I would...

...Bloodlines of Illuminati by: Fritz Springmeier, 1995 Introduction: I am pleased & honored to present this book to those in the world who love the truth. This is a book for lovers of the Truth. This is a book for those who are already familiar with my past writings. An Illuminati Grand Master once said that the world is a stage and we are all actors. Of course this was not an original thought, but it certainly is a way of describing the Illuminati view of how the world works. The people of the world are an audience to which the Illuminati entertain with propaganda. Just one of the thousands of recent examples of this type of acting done for the public was President Bill Clinton’s 1995 State of the Union address. The speech was designed to push all of the warm fuzzy buttons of his listening audience that he could. All the green lights for acceptance were systematically pushed by the President’s speech with the help of a controlled congressional audience. The truth on the other hand doesn’t always tickle the ear and warm the ego of its listeners. The light of truth in this book will be too bright for some people who will want to return to the safe comfort of their darkness. I am not a conspiracy theorist. I deal with real facts, not theory. Some of the people I write about, I have met. Some of the people I expose are alive and very dangerous. The darkness has never liked the light. Yet, many of the secrets of the Illuminati are locked up tightly simply because secrecy is a way...
