Data Collection Process
Researchers must make important decisions about the types of data they will collect. Data may be quantitative, qualitative, or both.
• What data are necessary to your professional practice?
• How do you collect data for decision making?
• Are you more likely to collect quantitative data, qualitative data, or both? Explain.
• Share an example of how you have collected data and the purpose for which you collected the data.
*Your original post MUST include information from a professional, scholarly source that is cited in APA style and a complete bibliographic entry in APA 7th format style at the conclusion of the post.
Which must include a citation from at least one source.
If your source has a doi (digital object identifier), it should be included. DOIs in a reference are formatted as URLs.
