In the context of both qualitative and quantitative research, theory is significant. This study investigates the application of theory to the understanding and interpretation of human experience, meaning, and context within the framework of a qualitative method. Theory serves as a conceptual framework for the formulation and testing of hypotheses in the quantitative approach, offering a methodical framework for the gathering and examination of numerical data. a deeper comprehension of how theory can be applied in conjunction with other research methods to build an integrated whole that serves as a strong basis for arranging the results of both qualitative and quantitative studies. It is anticipated that having a thorough understanding of how theory functions in research will improve the study's relevance and accuracy. The Auteur Theory is one of the theories that can be applied in creative writing. In this instance, she is referring to documentary film.
