In the last three decades, mixed methods research (MMR) has considerably expanded in the social and behavioural sciences. MMR is defined as “research in which the investigator collects and analyses data, integrates the findings, and draws inferences using both qualitative and quantitative approaches ...
mixed‐method designnursing interventionpost‐intensive care syndromeAim (a) To understand patients' lived experience at intensive care unit (ICU) discharge and (b) to evaluate the impact of a nursing empowerment intervention (NEI) on patients' anxiety and depression levels at ICU discharge. Design...
We then recommend a general and simple method for calculating two types of R2 (marginal and conditional R2) for both LMMs and GLMMs, which are less susceptible to common problems. This method is illustrated by examples and can be widely employed by researchers in any fields of research, ...
Conclusions: There are neither simple causes nor simple solutions to the obesity problem. Mixed method research driven by multi-level theories can help generate hypothesis about how multiple antecedents interact to cause obesity in an individual. Based on the findings of the work described here, a ...
In single-method research, ethical challenges arise through efforts to apply the ethical standards and assumptions within a given methodological approach to the particularities of a given topic and context (e.g., Ifcher and Zarghamee, 2016). When bringing multiple methods together, additional challen...
Our findings have implications for hospital design and future research. Firstly, we have demonstrated the feasibility of a data-driven method to identify patients which, for any reason, move between uncommon pairs of services using EHR data. These initial findings support further exploration of ward...
71, 102 To the best of our knowledge, there has been no previous systematic review that considered interventions to reduce ST specifically in school children, and the inconclusive evidence rating and small number of studies, therefore, suggests that further research is warranted. The finding of no...

“an easier or a nicer way” to fill out the patient-reported outcome measurement list, which collects information about experienced side effects due to the higher interaction than the current pen and paper method. Further, D1 and D2 agreed that most questions regarding side effects are similar...
In this method, complete ranges of mixed modes I/II, I/III, and I/II/III are attained easily through a same and modular configuration using a simple edge cracked disc shape specimen that is loaded by a conventional three-point bend fixture. The capability of the offered test specimen, ...
