Abstract
This paper reflects on the ontological, epistemological and methodological underpinnings of the two major
research approaches i.e the quantitative and the qualitative approaches. Their differences, occasioned by these
philosophical foundations are discussed and practical implications examined. It is our view that this paper will
have positive impact on the work of researchers and students undertaking courses in research studies
