dc.description.abstractI was meeting with E about the problems that postgraduate researchers experience when carrying out their research. E was a well-respected and eminent professor from Stellenbosch University. I had known him for about four years. We both had an interest in supervising and supporting postgraduate researchers undertaking masters and doctoral study. ‘You’ve asked a very interesting and,’ I added pointedly, ‘a very important, question. Like all good questions, it raises a whole raft of other questions and issues.’ E nodded thoughtfully. ‘And the answer?’ he asked. ‘Well, the question was about whether or not we can collect qualitative data in an experiment? Of course, as you know, the methodology textbooks will answer that we should collect quantitative data and not qualitative data in an experiment.’ ‘Yes,’ he nodded, ‘but I suspect you’ve got a view about that?’en_ZA
