How can qualitative data be transformed into quantitative data for analysis?
- By calculating the mean
- By coding the responses
- By conducting a t-test
- This transformation is not possible
Qualitative data can be transformed into quantitative data for analysis by coding the responses. This is a process where categories or themes identified in the qualitative data are assigned numerical codes. These numerical codes can then be used in statistical analyses. For instance, if you have data on types of pets (dogs, cats, etc.), you can assign a numerical code (1 for dogs, 2 for cats, etc.) to transform this qualitative data into quantitative data.
