Key scholars have lauded benefits of integrating mixed methods and grounded theory—or methods–grounded theory (MM-GT)—yet there been few attempts to ascertain in what ways researchers use MM-GT. Our aim was systematically, but not exhaustively, examine applications MM-GT offer procedural guidelines. We identified 61 empirical articles developed a codebook for analysis. widely used across disciplines. Most published provided little methodological detail regarding theory, methods, their...
Mixed methods–grounded theory (MM–GT) has emerged as a promising methodology that intersects the value of mixed methods with rigorous qualitative design. However, recent reviews have found MM–GT empirical studies tend to lack procedural details. The purpose this article is apply “best practices” for conducting in study designed develop and then test theoretical model how undergraduate engineering students interest PhD. This contributes field research by (a) illustrating best practices MM–GT,...
Several scholars have proposed frameworks for assessing the quality of mixed methods research (MMR) studies. However, no general consensus has emerged. The legitimation typology developed by Onwuegbuzie and Johnson (2006) is one promising approach that addresses quantitative, qualitative, MMR elements. aim this intrinsic, exploratory case study to explore use in empirical studies through interviews with developers, scholars, researchers who applied an study. We conducted a systematic...
The use of advanced quantitative methods within mixed research has been investigated in a limited capacity. In particular, hierarchical linear models are popular approach to account for multilevel data, such as students schools, but its and value the strand study remains unknown. This article examines role modeling with emphasis on design choice, priority, rationales. results from this systematic methodological review suggest that does not overshadow contributions qualitative strand. Our...
We live in a fast-paced world surrounded by technological advances. Engineers with advanced skills perform important functions our society. However we know very little about how engineers consider obtaining education and skills. The purpose of this study is to understand develop theory explaining the process domestic undergo developing an interest PhD engineering. Our research was guided following central question: What that explains doctoral-level engineering for engineers? used...
Background: There is limited understanding of the prevalence psychological distress and associated stressors supports among displaced adults in low-and middleincome first asylum countries.Method: This article reports findings a cross-sectional study.We recruited 245Congolese (18-80 years) residing Nairobi, Kenya using snowball sampling.Data were collected an interviewer-administered questionnaire consisting sociodemographic characteristics, Self-Reporting Questionnaire (SRQ-20), locally...
Despite guidelines on mixed methods writing practices, the process of turning a dissertation into peer-reviewed publication is unknown, which may hinder scientific advancements and use research across disciplines. This qualitative study explored recent doctorates’ experiences three dimensions (i.e., critical decisions about process, challenges, recommendations for scholars) through nine semi-structured interviews. We identified themes under each dimension, respectively: (a) considerations...
