The implications of a mixed methods way of thinking to practice
The foremost challenge in mixed methods research is not simply to align data or findings from different analytical procedures but to find an approach that makes it possible to integrate them in an informed way. The article engages more than 40 years of collective conversations with colleagues and students to describe and illustrate a mixed methods way of thinking and the dialectical logic associated with it as one approach to mixed methods resear…
Introducing Interrelated Models Appropriate for Designing a Mixed Research Design Within a Hybrid Design
In this article, interrelated models appropriate for conceptualizing a mixed research design within a hybrid design are presented. Initially, the discussion centers on outlining the core principles defining community-based participatory research and characteristics defining mixed research. The design model presents selective examples of mixed research elements to be considered when the researcher is strategizing the design. The integration model …
The Role of Sampling in Mixed Methods-Research
Qualitative Analysis Techniques for the Review of the Literature
In this article, we provide a framework for analyzing and interpreting sources that inform a literature review or, as it is more aptly called, a research synthesis. Specifically, using Leech and Onwuegbuzie’s (2007, 2008) frameworks, we delineate how the following four major source types inform research syntheses: talk, observations, drawings/photographs/videos, and documents. We identify 17 qualitative data analysis techniques that are optimal f…
A Typology of Mixed Methods Sampling Designs in Social Science Research
This paper provides a framework for developing sampling designs in mixed methods research. First, we present sampling schemes that have been associated with quantitative and qualitative research. Second, we discuss sample size considerations and provide sample size recommendations for each of the major research designs for quantitative and qualitative approaches. Third, we provide a sampling design typology and we demonstrate how sampling designs…
Collecting Qualitative Data for Social Network Analysis and Data Mining
Innovative Data Collection Strategies in Qualitative Research
This article provides an innovative meta-framework comprising strategies designed to guide qualitative data collection in the 21st century. We present a meta-framework comprising strategies for collecting data from interviews, focus groups, observations, and documents/material culture. We present a template for collecting nonverbal data during interviews and discuss the concept of debriefing the interviewer. We identify types of data that can be …
Reading Ability as a Predictor of African American Graduate Students' Technical Writing Proficiency in the Context of Statistics Courses
Assessing technical writing skills, such as writing results stemming from statistical analysis of real data, is considered by some statistics instructors as a viable way of providing authentic assessment. Unfortunately, many students find such technical wr iting extremely difficult. Because writing result sections of quantitative studies involves the ability to receive, to encode, to translate, and to reproduce material presented in statistical t…
Sampling
A sampling design comprises two components: the selection of a sampling scheme (purposive or probability) and a sample size.
Securing a Place at the Table
The purpose of this article is to recommend legitimation criteria pertinent for conducting mixed research. First, a discussion of mixed research as a distinctive methodology is presented, and challenges unique to mixed research are outlined. Second, an overview of quality criteria published in the mixed research literature is summarized. Third, the authors extend the discussion of quality criteria by introducing what we call the Holistic and Syne…
Interviewing the Interpretive Researcher
In this article the authors outline five types of debriefing and introduce a new type of debriefing, namely, that of debriefing the interpretive researcher. Next they present eight main areas accompanied by example questions to guide the interviewer when debriefing the researcher. They also present five authenticity criteria developed by Guba and Lincoln (1989) and include possible interview questions to document the degree to which the researche…
A Mixed Methods Investigation of Mixed Methods Sampling Designs in Social and Health Science Research
A sequential design utilizing identical samples was used to classify mixed methods studies via a two-dimensional model, wherein sampling designs were grouped according to the time orientation of each study's components and the relationship of the qualitative and quantitative samples. A quantitative analysis of 121 studies representing nine fields in the social or health sciences revealed that more studies utilized a sampling design that was concu…
Students’ Perceptions of Characteristics of Effective College Teachers
This study used a multistage mixed-methods analysis to assess the content-related validity (i.e., item validity, sampling validity) and construct-related validity (i.e., substantive validity, structural validity, outcome validity, generalizability) of a teaching evaluation form (TEF) by examining students’ perceptions of characteristics of effective college teachers. Participants were 912 undergraduate and graduate students (10.7% of student body…
Reading Comprehension among African American Graduate Students

Collins, Reading Comprehension among African American Graduate Students, The Journal of Negro Education, Vol. 73, No. 4, Special Focus: Parenting, Family, and Youth (Autumn, 2004), pp. 443-457
Reading Comprehension Among Graduate Students
The present purpose was to examine graduate students' reading comprehension and reading vocabulary by comparing their scores on a standardized reading test with scores obtained by a large normative sample of undergraduates. Participants were 59 graduate students from various disciplines, enrolled in three sections of an introductory educational research course at a southeastern university. These students were administered the Nelson-Denny Reading…
