In a 7- to 10-page scholarly research paper, evaluate the debate between proponents of qualitative and quantitative methodologies. Start by assessing the three distinct, but related inquiry concerns:
Rigorous methods for doing fieldwork
The credibility of the researcher
The philosophical belief in the value of qualitative inquiry
How do each of these inquiry concerns relate to qualitative versus quantitative inquiries? Which methodology is more credible? Which methodology is used more in the scientific community? Is there a way to combine both approaches in order to create one integrated inquiry? Which methodology is more acceptable in regards to credibility? Make sure you explain your answers in great detail and use your textbook and additional sources to substantiate your points.
Along with the text, use a minimum of five scholarly journals, books, articles, or other academic sources when writing this paper.
