PENELITIAN KUANTITATIF DAN KUALITATIF SERTA PEMIKIRAN DASAR MENGGABUNGKANNYA
Main Article Content
Abstract
Quantitative research is a research approach that represents the understanding of positivism, while qualitative research is an approach that represents a familiar naturalistic research (phenomenology). Research with quantitative and qualitative approach by some may not be mixed, but knowledge is considered wrong by researchers who noticed that each research approach has a weakness, and therefore deemed necessary to do a combination, for each approach complement each other. The reason for the selection of both research approaches is that both types of research are mutually reinforcing and complementing each other so that research results will be achieved not only an objective, structured and measurable but it will be achieved also in-depth research results and factual.
Penelitian kuantitatif merupakan pendekatan penelitian yang mewakili paham positivisme, sementara itu penelitian kualitatif merupakan pendekatan penelitian yang mewakili paham naturalistik (fenomenologis). Penelitian dengan pendekatan kuantitatif dan kualitatif oleh sebagian kalangan tidak boleh dicampuradukan, namun pemahaman ini dianggap keliru oleh para peneliti yang melihat bahwa masing-masing pendekatan penelitian mempunyai kelemahan, dan oleh karenanya dianggap perlu untuk melakukan kombinasi, agar masing-masing pendekatan saling melengkapi. Alasan pemilihan kedua pendekatan penelitian tersebut adalah bahwa kedua jenis penelitian tersebut saling memperkuat dan saling melengkapi sehingga akan dicapai hasil penelitian yang tidak hanya obyektif, terstruktur dan terukur namun akan dicapai juga hasil penelitian yang mendalam dan faktual
