Must demonstrate knowledge of analysis techniques and ability to apply quantitative or qualitative approaches
You must analyse your data using appropriate techniques. These techniques are either quantitative (number-based) or qualitative (meaning-based).

After collecting land-use survey data across ten zones in Bristol's city centre, a student applied Spearman's rank to test whether distance from the CBD correlated with declining retail diversity — a quantitative technique matched to their numerical dataset.
Exam Focus
Justify why you chose each analysis technique; stating you used Spearman's rank without explaining why it suits your data type will lose marks.
