Education research has recently seen the emergence of two distinct frameworks guiding the application of quantitative methods through a more critical and equity-oriented lens. These two frameworks are critical quantitative (CritQuant) studies and quantitative critical race theory (QuantCrit). Although different in their intellectual traditions, they both acknowledge the oppressive history of quantitative methods and the need to improve the criticality of quantitative research in education. For applied quantitative research in education to become more critical, it is imperative that learners of quantitative methodology be made aware of its historical and modern misuses. This directive calls for an important change in the way quantitative methodology is taught in educational classrooms. Critical quantitative literacy (CQL) is introduced in this manuscript as a paradigm for teaching, learning, understanding, and applying quantitative methods in a way that supports the application of CritQuant and QuantCrit frameworks in educational research.

批判性定量素养：批判性定量研究的教育基础

教育研究最近出现了两种不同的框架，通过更加批判性和以公平为导向的视角来指导定量方法的应用。这两个框架是临界定量（CritQuant）研究和定量临界种族理论（QuantCrit）。尽管他们的思想传统不同，但他们都承认定量方法的压抑历史以及提高定量研究在教育中的重要性的必要性。为了使教育中的应用定量研究变得更加重要，定量方法的学习者必须意识到其历史和现代的误用。该指令要求对教育课堂上定量方法的教授方式进行重大改变。本手稿引入了批判性定量素养（CQL），作为教学、学习、理解和应用定量方法的范例，以支持 CritQuant 和 QuantCrit 框架在教育研究中的应用。
