Theoretical Prospective 

The theory that I will use is Quantitative Theory Use. It was developed by John Creswell (1994), and it was used to study by examining relationship among variables. According to Creswell´s theory, variables are used to refer to any topic, to give characteristics to individuals, objects or organizations, where it is measured and observed conclusive point of view, using scores or numbers that demonstrate a certain science a total definition of the study of the same way specific and concrete. As applied to my topic, this theory holds that I would expect my independent variable(s): Age, Gender, Socioeconomic Status, and Attitudes or behaviors such as racism, social control, political power, or leadership.  To influence or explain the dependent variable(s):two important variables are worked on: temporal order and measurement (observation). Quantitative Theory Use, they cannot prove a cause, the variables can affect or cause another variable, but, many scientists and researchers are currently talking about probable causes, in addition, qualitative researchers give a specific order to each variable, such as propositions, research questions and visual models for different causes, therefore it can be concluded that a qualitative research can give concrete answers to different problems that exist at the social and cultural level and demonstrate its effects and the reasons why there are such social phenomena.

The theory we use is that of Creswell, John W. (1994). Research design. Qualitative, quantitative and mixed methods approaches. Quantitative research is the approach to test different theories by examining the relationship between variables, which can be measured in instruments where numerical data can be analyzed through statistical results, obtaining a written report, where its structure is compound for an introduction, literature and theory, methods results and discussion.

 

Bearing in mind that research strategies focused on quantitative research for the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries, they were invoked by the worldview and originated in psychology. rigorous so-called quasi-experiments of a single subject in which the experimental treatment is administered over time, either to an individual or a small group of individuals.
