What is the difference between a qualitative and quantitative variable?
in mathematical statistics qualitative means not numbers so it has to be expressed in words e.g. a color quantative: means a number e.g. age.
What are the two main types of data a scientist collect?
Data will be either qualitative (non numerical description) or quantative (numerical values assigned to a property). To give you an example, a meterologist may describe the sky on a particular day as cloudy (qualitative) with a 5 mile per hour wind (quantative). Studies can be classified as experimental studies or observational studies. The experimental study means that the scientist is able to treat or alter in some way the population. Medical studies of drugs frequently conduct experimental studies and collect experimental data. Observational studies, we collect data without altering the population. A good example is astronomical studies, where it is impossible to alter the population. Scientific studies need to be thorough investigations relying on good data and sufficient quantity of data in order to reach conclusions.
