Β·Β Definition:Β QuantitativeΒ researchΒ isΒ aΒ systematicΒ empiricalΒ investigationΒ ofΒ phenomena using statistical, mathematical, or computational techniques. ItΒ aims to measure and quantify relationships between variables, and it oftenΒ involvesΒ collectingΒ numericalΒ dataΒ throughΒ structuredΒ methods,Β suchΒ asΒ surveys,Β experiments,Β or existingΒ dataΒ analysis.

Quantitative research typically involves collecting numerical dataΒ and analysing it statistically to draw generalizable conclusions. While CollyerΒ did analyse data (e.g., the number of interviews conducted), the primary focusΒ of his study was not on measuring numerical relationships between variablesΒ butΒ onΒ understandingΒ theΒ experiencesΒ andΒ decision-makingΒ processesΒ ofΒ AlgerianΒ asylum-seekers.
