Many of the remaining publications appeared to reflect a postpositivist position due to the way in which authors distinguished qualitative research from positivist, quantitative research, and due to the frequent use of terminology derived from Lincoln and Guba's influential postpositivist criteria for quality [ 51].
In a dimensional (quantitative continuum) condition, no single qualitative process can distinguish the extremes from normal variations.
We report in this paper a novel qualitative method electrochemically distinguishing two positional isomers by utilizing their perturbation effects on a catalyzed Briggs Rauscher (BR) oscillation.
These signals offer a qualitative means of distinguishing the various algae types.
This required a combination of a qualitative judgement in distinguishing the components and a quantitative assessment of their extent.
For severely undernourished children, Waterlow suggested an additional qualitative classification to distinguish marasmus, kwashiorkor, and intermediate forms [ 2].

The author distinguishes qualitative properties (for example type of data that can be handled, learning strategy, incrementality) and quantitative properties (bias-variance profile, runtime properties like scalability and resilience).
In many cases, particularly for mutation scanning methods, it is necessary to use a qualitative description to distinguish between a single normal state (negative result) and any number of mutated states (positive result).
