Összefoglaló	Comparative exploratory quantitative research is a design that uses structured numerical data collection to discover patterns, differences, and relationships across two or more distinct groups or conditions — without a fully specified hypothesis in advance. It sits at the intersection of exploratory intent and comparative structure: the researcher does not enter the field with a predetermined answer but organises the inquiry around a comparison that will generate quantitative insights. The design is common in social, educational, and behavioural sciences when a phenomenon is insufficiently understood to permit confirmatory testing but structured group comparison is still feasible and informative.	Survey research is a quantitative (and sometimes mixed-methods) design in which a researcher collects standardised self-report data from a sample drawn from a defined population, using a questionnaire or structured interview. It is the dominant non-experimental strategy for describing population characteristics, estimating prevalence, mapping attitude distributions, and testing bivariate or multivariate associations across social, behavioural, and health sciences.
