Also the study is not experimental as the researcher did not manipulate the independent variable or randomise the participants to specific conditions. Holly’s initial aim was to find a causal relationship which would be linked to an experimental study although the design of this study is not experimental. Likewise a cross sectional study was not conducted as this method uses different

The research and data is strictly fact-based and not estimates or opinion. Quantitative research has been used in business, market and scientific research. This type of research does not usually cover broad topics like qualitative research might. Instead it typically is more focused or narrowed to an exact topic of study. Quantitative research differs from qualitative research in the fact that the researcher or investigator attempts to remove themselves from the investigation so that the collected data is not swayed or

A scientific control is the group not exposed to the conditions of the experiment, the control is designed to minimize the effects of variables other than the single independent variable.

When conducted honestly and thoroughly, the scientific method can and has provided valuable information about the world and the world’s people (Jackson, 2009). Though some people rely on other methods for gaining knowledge, scientists only accept knowledge gained through science to arrive at plausible truths (Jackson, 2009). Due in part to human error and the tendency of human nature to succumb to temptations to bias research, the results of the scientific method should be viewed with skepticism (Garzon, n.d.). The scientific method of seeking knowledge and finding truth must stay within the limits of scientific ability and allow for human fragility in order to be effective (Slick, 2012).

Philosophy: the love of wisdom The study of first causes, the ultimate nature of things. Because philosophical principles are ultimate/primary, there is nothing that precedes them. Knowledge is associated with science (to know) – person has science not by knowing a fact, but the reasoning for the fact, or cause. Wisdom is knowledge through causes – knowledge of first causes. Wisdom does not require any kind of experience beyond normal experience.
