Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D. (A) is not correct but (R) is correct(A) सही नहीं है, किंतु (R) सही है
Explanation
Positivistic epistemology underpins quantitative research; qualitative research rests on interpretivism/phenomenology, so (A) is wrong. Quantitative research is indeed hypothesis-testing in design, so (R) is taken as correct. Hence (A) is not correct but (R) is correct.प्रत्यक्षवादी ज्ञानमीमांसा परिमाणात्मक शोध का आधार है; गुणात्मक शोध व्याख्यावाद/घटनाविज्ञान पर टिका है, अतः (A) गलत है। परिमाणात्मक शोध की अभिकल्पना वस्तुतः परिकल्पना-परीक्षण पर आधारित होती है, अतः (R) सही माना गया है। इसलिए (A) सही नहीं है, किंतु (R) सही है।More Research Aptitude questions
