Telephonic Interviews
A telephone survey or an interview stands as a cornerstone in the realm of quantitative descriptive research. Recognized for its efficiency as a data collection method, the interviewer conducts the conversation via telephone. Responses are meticulously gathered, either through pre-coded options, showcasing the strengths of quantitative research, or by capturing verbatim answers. This method, widely acknowledged as the Computer-Aided Telephone Interview (CATI), is a testament to the advancements in quantitative research techniques.
