7. IMPORTANCE OF
QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH
ACROSS FIELDS

8. Research & ANTHROPOLOGY
ois the scientific study of humans,
their behavior, and societies in the
past.
oComparative research is conducted
by anthropologists to give meanings
and implications to the past, present,
and future activities of human kinds.

9. Research & ANTHROPOLOGY
oThis theory of human evolution was
realized due to quantitative research
that analyzes the fossils (remains of the
past) such as stone imprints of humans
and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)
remnants. Measuring the remains of the
past to interpret the future is a product
of quantitative research.

10. Research & COMMUNICATION
ois the act of conveying
meanings from one entity or
group to another through the
use of mutually understood
signs, symbols, and semiotic
rules.

11. Research & COMMUNICATION
oThe primary purpose of
communication research is to
help people understand
communication phenomena and
direct their communication
towards accomplishing individual
and organizational goals.

12. Research & COMMUNICATION
oThrough quantitative research,
people can communicate with each
other from distant places because of
telephones and internet connections.
oThe invention of modern
communication devices is a product
of quantitative research.

13. Research & COMMUNICATION
oEnhancing communication
skills is one of the most
researched topics for
quantitative research.

14. Research & MEDICINE
ois the science and practice of
establishing the diagnosis,
prognosis, treatment, and
prevention of disease. It
encompasses a variety of health
care practices to maintain and
restore health through the
prevention and treatment of illness.

15. Research & MEDICINE
oMost medical or health care
research is based on quantitative
methods in which, by definition,
information is quantifiable.
oThe role of quantitative research in
medical education tends to be
predominantly observational
research based on surveys or
correlational studies

16. Research & BEHAVIORAL SCIENCE
oContemporary researchers are
interested in two types of
questions namely, questions of
relationship and questions of
differences
oExample: Are certain supervisor
communication skills related to
emotional experiences of
employees?

17. Research & PSYCHOLOGY
oPsychologists study the mental
process and human behavior by
interpreting and recording how
people relate to one another and
the environment.
oWithout quantitative research, our
mental and emotional problems
will not be properly attended to.

18. Research & PSYCHOLOGY
oResearch Areas:
oProblems encountered by individuals,
groups and families
oMemory and thinking, conscious
processes, perceptions, problem
solving, and creativity
oIntellectual development, emerging
personality, and the acquisition of
language

19. Research & EDUCATION
oIn deductive type of research, SHS
students develop critical thinking
capability and effective analytical
research, and communication
skills that are incredibly beneficial
oEnhances both reading and
writing

20. Research & EDUCATION
oResearch areas
oLearning strategies
oAcademic Performance
oMastery
oCurriculum Development
oAssessment

21. Research & SOCIAL SCIENCE
ois the study of society and how
people behave and influence the
world around them.
oScientific study of human society
and social relationships
oResearch conducted to determine
the extent of leadership competence
of organizational leaders

22. Research & BUSINESS
oImprove the overall marketing
strategy, help the company make
informed decisions on how to move
forward with a particular product or
service, and even solicit consumers'
opinions for productivity.

23. Research & BUSINESS
oResearch areas:
oProduce consumer goods or mass-
market items
oProduct innovation and advancement
and to improve improving services
oBusiness strategies

24. Research & AGRICULTURE
oThe significance of quantitative
research in agriculture and fisheries
cannot be overstated because it aids
in the detection of disease trends in
crops, the elimination of threats, and
the prevention of future outbreaks
oEssential for sustainable and
inclusive agricultural development

25. Research & ICT
oQuantitative approaches are frequently
used in the field of ICT to compute findings
and analyze systems using a scientific
approach.
oproven to be a major driver for innovation
and growth in many countries around the
world and is therefore the focus of policies
to strengthen research, collaboration and
application of research results
