Abstract

This research aims to present a simplified method for selecting the appropriate statistical technique to process quantitative research data. The selection method is primarily based on the objective of the research question or hypothesis: whether the aim is to study differences, describe the correlational relationship between variables, or predict future behavior of a phenomenon. This primary criterion encompasses additional factors such as the number of samples and their relationship, the number of variables applied to the sample, and their classification as independent or dependent variables, as well as the levels of measurement of these variables. Notably, the most commonly used and applied statistical analysis techniques in scientific research were selected.
