    Critique of Quantitative and Qualitative Studies

    The following paper is a critique of the data collection and data analysis methods used in a quantitative study that examines the effects of crossed legs on blood pressure measurement, and a qualitative study that looks at the experiences of patients during awake craniotomies. The data collection and analysis are the heart and soul of a study and contribute to its reliability. A study that doesn’t have relevant data and conclusions isn’t significant in any way. Polit and Beck (2012) state, that when making conclusions about the studies evidence “it is important to consider whether researchers have taken appropriate steps to collect data that accurately reflect reality” (p. 346). This means that the proper tools for data collection were utilized while using proper methods for the questions to be answered. After data collection, analysis takes place using statistical designs to evaluate hypotheses and simplify data. I will critique these areas in the quantitative and qualitative studies and evaluate areas of strength and weakness.…

    organizational focus and goals

    Forte is a nonprofit organization in its infancy. The organization is only three years old and has already seen substantial changes to its structure and business strategy. Currently, Forte is mostly unknown. However, this past year the organization took a huge leap in firing its Artistic Director and choreographer and hiring a new Artistic Director and choreographer. Both new additions bring a wealth of knowledge of the performing arts industry that has catapulted Forte to setting their sights higher than the two performances a year. In the past two years the organization was funded primarily through parental donations, which were small and only allowed the organization to perform twice a year. This past year with the addition of the new employees, the organization saw ticket sales increase tremendously and interest from many more students in joining.…

    Quantitative vs. Qualitative Research:

    Conversely, a qualitative approach is one in which the inquirer, “often makes knowledge claims based primarily on constructivist perspectives in addition to the use of strategies of inquiry such as narratives, phenomenologies, ethnographies, grounded theory studies or case studies”. (Creswell, 2003, p.18) This would allow much more broad-based, ‘open-ended’ information to be obtained, with the focus being on developing themes from the data.…

    Nonprofit Arts Organizations

    Funding the arts and arts organizations is often a concern of arts managers and, at times, a topic of debate. Every nonprofit arts organization spends much of their time ensuring that they have enough resources to meet their mission. When program revenue falls short of covering their activities, other public and private funding options are explored. When public, government funding is received, controversy may occur when an organization produces something that is viewed as offensive by society. Evaluating programs with a triple-bottom line formula, funding can straightforwardly be supported and defended.…
