Mixed methods research combines quantitative and qualitative
research methods in a single study. The use of mixed methods
research is increasingly popular in nursing and health sciences
research. This growth in popularity has been driven by the
increasing complexity of research problems relating to human health
and wellbeing.
Mixed Method Research for Nursing and the Health Sciences is an
accessible, practical guide to the design, conduct and reporting of
mixed method research in nursing or the health sciences. Each
chapter stands alone, describing the various steps of the research
process, but contains links to other chapters. Within the text,
‘real-life’ examples from the published literature,
doctoral theses and the unpublished work of the authors, illustrate
the concepts being discussed.
* * Places mixed methods research within its contemporary
