But its applicability was already another thing, the numbers are not applied with easiness to the human complex matters, and they are in fact the human problems and its solution, those that demand of the social investigator. It constituted it basement for the emergency of the qualitative, numerically weak investigation but strong to cope with the complexity of the real world research”.
