Abstract

Abstract:

The application of mixed method paradigm in nursing research has increased，which enriches the methodological diversity of nursing research，but there are some problems in application，such as mixed logic ambiguity，imprecise research design and weak result integration. This paper mainly analyzed the design type，data integration and common problems of mixed method research in nursing field，so as to promote rigor design and methodology quality of this research paradigm in nursing field.

Key words: Nursing Research, Mixed Methods Research, Design Type, Data Integration

摘要：

混合方法研究范式在护理学研究领域的应用增加，丰富了护理研究方法学的多样性，但在应用中存在混合的逻辑性模糊、研究设计不严谨、结果整合薄弱等问题。该文主要分析了护理领域混合方法研究的设计类型、资料整合及常见问题，以促进该研究范式在护理领域中的规范应用和发展。
