UNASSIGNED: The purpose of this paper is to provide guidance for integrating elements of mixed methods research in order to effectively support evidence-based practice in health.
UNASSIGNED: The concept of integration of findings is explained with reference to the author\'s recent PhD study, which used a mixed methods exploratory sequential design. This article describes how the author used a narrative joint display to integrate findings from both the qualitative and survey phases of the study. Then, a step-by-step approach is introduced to guide the interpretation and integration of the findings.
UNASSIGNED: This four-step approach demonstrates integration of the two different datasets: Creating a joint display, linking activity, establishing relationships, and interpreting and reporting. Tables and Figures are used to support detailed description and illustration of the integration process.
UNASSIGNED: A joint display provides a visual representation of how the qualitative and quantitative findings in a MMR study can be integrated. In this way, interpretation of the data drawn from this process extend beyond the individual findings of each study component to facilitate a greater understanding of complex health care issues.
UNASSIGNED:本文的目的是为整合混合方法研究的要素提供指导,以有效地支持健康方面的循证实践。
UNASSIGNED:结合作者最近的博士研究解释了研究结果整合的概念,采用混合方法探索性序贯设计。本文介绍了作者如何使用叙事联合展示来整合研究定性和调查阶段的发现。然后,引入了逐步的方法来指导研究结果的解释和整合。
UNASSIGNED:这种四步方法演示了两个不同数据集的集成:创建一个联合显示,链接活动,建立关系,解释和报告。表格和附图用于支持集成过程的详细描述和图示。
UNASSIGNED:联合显示提供了如何整合MMR研究中的定性和定量结果的视觉表示。这样,从这一过程中得出的数据的解释超出了每个研究组成部分的个人发现,以促进对复杂的医疗保健问题的更多理解。
