Session: Mixed Method Approaches: the Promises and the Pitfalls
Time: Wednesday 6th July, 15:45 - 17:15
Convenors:
Dr Jenni Burt (University of Cambridge)
Dr Morag Farquhar (University of Cambridge)
Abstract Details
Mixed and multi method approaches are increasingly common in the social sciences. Whilst much has been written about the justification, design and benefit of mixed methods, there is correspondingly little published empirical research which rigorously employs such approaches. In this interactive session, we will outline what mixed and multi methods approaches are, when you might use them, and - most importantly - how to go about integrating quantitative and qualitative data (a) across a series of studies and (b) within a single study. In doing so, we will draw on our health services research experience in primary and palliative care.
