Specifically, we examined which quantitative methods are used in JEEto develop a picture of the state of quantitative methods in engineering education. The resultsfound that while a large number of studies used basic statistical testing, there is a trend of moreadvanced quantitative methods being used over the years.Introduction Recent decades have witnessed a continued rapid advancement in engineering educationresearch.
