Healthcare interprofessional palliative care educational needs
BACKGROUND: Universal access to palliative care (PC) is a human right that most countries have not accomplished. Effective PC delivery requires an interprofessional team approach. Healthcare professional education is critical to bolstering PC service integration, especially in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) where PC is least available. Jamaica is a LMIC with inadequate PC. This study aimed to explore the PC experiences and educational n…
User-centered process evaluations of web-based diet and exercise interventions for middle-aged and older adults living with chronic disease
Using Mixed Methods Research to Optimize Healthy Lifestyle Intervention Adaptation for Web-Based Delivery
Intervention adaptation is a crucial step toward increasing intervention acceptability and translating evidence-based research into practice and broader use. This article describes a pragmatic approach to optimize intervention adaptation of AMPLIFY (AiM, Plan, and act on LIFestYles) web-based diet and exercise program for middle-aged and older cancer survivors by applying mixed methods research. A matrix with adaptation phases, elements, and meth…
Updating the content of education through the integration of seven modules
The article is devoted to the analysis of modern trends in the field of updating the content of school education of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The introduction of seven educational modules in the content of education will improve the quality of Kazakhstan's education. Finding ways to integrate the seven modules of education makes the study relevant. The author describes the educational modules and their impact on the content of education, focusi…
Life after breast cancer
Objective: In the United States, 26,534 young women (≤45 years) were diagnosed with breast cancer in 2017. Young African American (AA) women have higher incidence and mortality rates than Whites and Hispanics. Yet, few published studies describe survivorship (life after breast cancer diagnosis) experiences among this group. Here, we explore the lived experience of young AA breast cancer survivorship (via quality of life [QOL]). Design: This pheno…
Teaching mixed methods research
Mixed methods research is growing in acceptance and complexity, which translates into significant pedagogical challenges for teaching about mixed methods research. To address this challenge and to contribute to creating a pedagogical culture for teaching research methods, we developed a practically focused conceptual framework for describing the field of mixed methods research and used this framework to structure an Introduction to Mixed Methods …
Sisters in the Sacred Grove
This study addresses the lack of scholarly attention focused on educational contributions of Catholic women religious educators. Using a qualitative multiple case study, this research describes the academic experiences of Catholic sisters, or women religious, serving as faculty at public universities in the South. The study highlights issues related to gender, religious identity, environment, relationships, and experiences and perceptions of othe…
Applying Mixed Methods in Action Research
Mixed methods research has the capacity to intersect with other approaches, such as action research, by adding a solid methodological foundation and creating an integrated approach for addressing complex practical problems. Conceptual, philosophical, and procedural similarities between mixed methods and action research make integration possible and justifiable. Combining the two approaches can produce more scientifically sound and transferable re…

Applying Grounded Theory to Weight Management among Women
In this study we developed a theory grounded in data from women who continued healthy eating behaviors after a weight management program. Participant recruitment was guided by theoretical sampling strategies for focus groups and individual interviews. Inclusion criteria were: African American or Caucasian women aged 30+ who lost > 5% of their body weight in a weight management program > year ago. Participants > 5% below their baseline weight were…
Caregiver perceptions of the food marketing environment of African-American 3–11-year-olds

Design Individual semi-structured interviews with caregivers were conducted by trained community leaders to ascertain their awareness of and perceptions about …
Implementing Quality Criteria in Designing and Conducting a Sequential Quan → Qual Mixed Methods Study of Student Engagement With Learning Applied Research Methods Online
In spite of recent methodological developments related to quality assurance in mixed methods research, practical examples of how to implement quality criteria in designing and conducting sequential QUAN → QUAL mixed methods studies to ensure the process is systematic and rigorous remain scarce. This article discusses a three-step procedure for securing the quality of the meta-inferences generated from sequential employment of quantitative and qua…
Experience of sexual violence among women in HIV discordant unions after voluntary HIV counselling and testing
HIV-serodiscordant relationships are those in which one partner is infected with HIV while the other is not. We investigated experiences of sexual violence among women in HIV discordant unions attending HIV post-test club services in Uganda. A volunteer sample of 26 women from three AIDS Information Centres in Uganda who reported having experienced sexual violence in a larger epidemiological study were interviewed, using the qualitative critical …
Using Mixed-Methods Sequential Explanatory Design
This article discusses some procedural issues related to the mixed-methods sequential explanatory design, which implies collecting and analyzing quantitative and then qualitative data in two consecutive phases within one study. Such issues include deciding on the priority or weight given to the quantitative and qualitative data collection and analysis in the study, the sequence of the data collection and analysis, and the stage/stages in the rese…
