Sequential Explanatory Strategy

The sequential explanatory strategy is characterized by the collection and analysis of quantitative data followed by the collection and analysis of qualitative data. The purpose of this strategy is typically to use qualitative results to assist in explaining and interpreting the findings of a quantitative study. It is particularly useful when unexpected results arise from the quantitative phase.

Portuguese

Estratégia Explanatória Seqüencial

A estratégia explanatória seqüencial é caracterizada pela coleta e análise de dados quantitativos seguida da coleta e análise de dados qualitativos. O propósito dessa estratégia é, tipicamente, usar os resultados qualitativos para auxiliar na explicação e interpretação de descobertas de um estudo quantitativo. É particularmente útil quando resultados inesperados surgem na fase quantitativa.
