الملخص	Multivariate exploratory quantitative research is a design in which researchers simultaneously examine multiple quantitative variables without imposing a predetermined structural model, using techniques such as exploratory factor analysis, cluster analysis, or principal component analysis to detect latent patterns, natural groupings, or underlying dimensions in the data. The goal is discovery and pattern recognition rather than hypothesis confirmation.	Multivariate correlational research is a non-experimental quantitative design that examines the simultaneous associations among three or more variables. Rather than manipulating conditions, the researcher measures naturally occurring variables and uses techniques such as multiple regression, canonical correlation, or structural equation modeling to map the pattern and strength of their interrelationships. It is the dominant design when the goal is to understand how a set of predictors jointly relates to one or more outcome variables.
