Given below are two statements:

Statement I: Qualitative data analysis is governed by the codified prescriptions of quantitative data analysis.

Statement II: Qualitative data analysis has many approaches, of which the grounded theory is important.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Qualitative data analysis: The process of examining and interpreting non-numerical data to understand underlying meanings, patterns, and themes.

Key Points

Statement I: The qualitative data analysis is governed by the codified prescriptions of quantitative data analysis

Qualitative data analysis differs significantly from quantitative data analysis, and its methodologies and techniques cannot be governed by the same codified prescriptions as quantitative research. 

Thus, This statement is false. 

Statement II: Qualitative data analysis has many approaches, of which the grounded theory is important. 

Grounded theory is a widely used approach to qualitative data analysis that involves developing a theory from the data itself, rather than testing a preconceived hypothesis.

Other approaches to qualitative data analysis include content analysis, narrative analysis, and discourse analysis, among others.

Thus, this statement is true.

Therefor, Statement I is False but Statement II is true.
