QUIZ 3: Chapter 25 Mixed Methods Flashcards
5 rationales for mixed methods
PIE CC 1. Practicality 2. Incrementality 3. Enhanced Validity 4. Complementarity 5. Collaboration
Which rationale (PIE CC) for mixed methods is described: “avoiding limitations of one approach”
Complementarity
Which rationale (PIE CC) for mixed methods is described: “often answer questions that cannot be answered any other way”
Practicality
Which rationale (PIE CC) for mixed methods is described: “addressing exploratory and confirmatory questions”
incrementality
Which rationale (PIE CC) for mixed methods is described: “testing alternative interpretations of data”
Enhanced Validity
Which rationale (PIE CC) for mixed methods is described: “cohesion between quant/qual researchers with similar problems to investigate”
Collaboration
Which is NOT a purpose of using mixed methods: 1. when concepts are new or poorly understood 2. when findings from 1 approach can be greatly enhanced by 2nd source of data 3. when just 1 approach does not address the problem 4. when quantitative results can be further clarified by another quantitative study
- when quantitative results can be further clarified by another quantitative study *when quantitative results can be further clarified by QUALITATIVE results
Which is NOT an application of MM? 1. Documentation 2. Intervention Development 3. Hypothesis Generation 4. Explication 5. Theory Building
- Documentation *Instrumentation is the application of MM
Which application of MM? 1. Instrumentation 2. Intervention Development 3. Hypothesis Generation 4. Explication 5. Theory Building *to develop structured instruments for clinical use and research; useful when construct is new; used to capture full dimensionality of instrument (clinical experience, theory, prior research)
- Instrumentation
Which application of MM? 1. Instrumentation 2. Intervention Development 3. Hypothesis Generation 4. Explication 5. Theory Building *takes clients’ perspective into account, qualitative phase could lend to developing elements of intervention, quantitative phase could lend to quantitative elements of testing feasibility of intervention, development of new effective intervention,
- Intervention Development
Which application of MM? 1. Instrumentation 2. Intervention Development 3. Hypothesis Generation 4. Explication 5. Theory Building *typically takes years to follow through & publish, followed by quantitative study to confirm insights,qualitative study to provide insight on new constructs
- Hypothesis Generation
Which application of MM? 1. Instrumentation 2. Intervention Development 3. Hypothesis Generation 4. Explication 5. Theory Building *corroborate statistical findings and guide interpretation of results, quantitative systematic views and qualitative more global and dynamic views
- Explication
Which application of MM? 1. Instrumentation 2. Intervention Development 3. Hypothesis Generation 4. Explication 5. Theory Building *provides good opportunity for confirmation of theory, theory gains acceptance the more it is supported
- Theory Building
T/F *In MM research, there are typically 2 research questions
TRUE
T/F *In MM research, the 2 types of data contradict each others findings
FALSE *the 2 types of data confirm each other or 1 type helps explain the other
