For this assignment, navigate to Scholars Crossing (https://digitalcommons.liberty.edu/etd/) and find 5 dissertations that utilize the quantitative research method. Each quantitative dissertation must use a different quantitative research design. In other words, all 5 dissertations must use the quantitative method and all 5 must utilize a unique design. Once you identify 5 unique quantitative designed dissertations, read through them identifying similarities and differences. At the end of the comparison and contrast paper, come to a conclusion about which quantitative design is preferable. Be sure to state why you believe that quantitative design is the best and how you believe it would be the best for your study. The candidate’s Quantitative Methods Compare and Contrast Paper must be at least 5 pages (not including title, abstract, and reference pages) and include at least 5 dissertation sources.
INSTRUCTIONS
The candidate’s comparison and contrast paper must contain the following elements:
• Introduction and Thesis: The introduction of the comparison and contrast paper should cover the main point that you will be discussing. Explain to the audience what you will be comparing and contrasting, and what the purpose of the comparison and contrast is. The introduction should also have a strong thesis statement. The thesis statement should overview the key similarities and the key differences between the items. It may also explain the significance of the differences and similarities.
• Comparison Section: The first section of the paper, after the introduction and thesis, should compare the items being discussed. Provide details about the key similarities and use descriptive details and examples to illustrate your points, use actual examples including a side-by-side comparison.
• Contrast Section: After you have explained the similarities, you should explain the main differences between the items. Like the comparison section, you should use actual examples and provide enough detail so the audience can follow the logic of your contrast section.
• Conclusion: After you have thoroughly compared and contrasted the options, briefly summarize the key similarities and differences. After the brief recap, explain the significance of the similarities and differences and why these differences and similarities might affect the audience’s decision. If the assignment asks you to come to a conclusion about which option is preferable, make a strong statement about which option is best, given the criteria, and support your decision with evidence presented in the paper.
