The correct answer is A) qualitative, quantitative.

By assigning numerical values to descriptions of observing behaviors, psychologists can transfer qualitative data into quantitative data.

This process is very important in decision making. Not because psychologists handle much quality information it is not possible to represent the data in numbers of graphics. To do so psychologists need to assign numerical values to descriptions of observing behaviors. This way, qualitative data is transferred ti quantitative data for a better interpretation of the problem. When this happens, the psychologist has the chance to get numbers, statistics, tendencies, graphics, and a better possibility to understand the issue and come with a solution.
