Stratified Sampling Method01:16

Stratified Sampling Method

12.8K
Sampling is a technique to select a portion (or subset) of the larger population and study that portion (the sample) to gain information about the population. The sampling method ensures that samples are drawn without bias and accurately represent the population. Because measuring the entire population in a study is not practical, researchers use samples to represent the population of interest.
To choose a stratified sample, divide the population into groups called strata and then take a...

Cluster Sampling Method

12.7K
Appropriate sampling methods ensure that samples are drawn without bias and accurately represent the population. Because measuring the entire population in a study is not practical, researchers use samples to represent the population of interest.
To choose a cluster sample, divide the population into clusters (groups) and then randomly select some of the clusters. All the members from these clusters are in the cluster sample. For example, if you randomly sample four departments from your...

Group Design02:01

Group Design

9.6K
The most basic experimental design involves two groups: the experimental group and the control group. The two groups are designed to be the same except for one difference— experimental manipulation. The experimental group gets the experimental manipulation—that is, the treatment or variable being tested—and the control group does not. Since experimental manipulation is the only difference between the experimental and control groups, we can be sure that any differences between...

Cross-Sectional Research

11.8K
In cross-sectional research, a researcher compares multiple segments of the population at the same time. If they were interested in people's dietary habits, the researcher might directly compare different groups of people by age. Instead of following a group of people for 20 years to see how their dietary habits changed from decade to decade, the researcher would study a group of 20-year-old individuals and compare them to a group of 30-year-old individuals and a group of 40-year-old...

Data Collection by Experiments01:13

Data Collection by Experiments

25.2K
Data collection is a systematic method of obtaining, observing, measuring, and analyzing accurate information. An experimental study is a standard method of data collection that involves the manipulation of the samples by applying some form of treatment prior to data collection. It refers to manipulating one variable to determine its changes on another variable. The sample subjected to treatment is known as “experimental units.”
An example of the experimental method is a public...

Longitudinal Research02:20

Longitudinal Research

12.4K
Sometimes we want to see how people change over time, as in studies of human development and lifespan. When we test the same group of individuals repeatedly over an extended period of time, we are conducting longitudinal research. Longitudinal research is a research design in which data-gathering is administered repeatedly over an extended period of time. For example, we may survey a group of individuals about their dietary habits at age 20, retest them a decade later at age 30, and then again...

Area of Science:

  • Nursing Research Methodology
  • Mixed Methods Research Integration

Background:

  • Mixed Methods Research (MMR) often neglects integration of literature review and theoretical dimensions.
  • Existing MMR literature primarily focuses on integration during design, fieldwork, analysis, and interpretation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose and illustrate the collaging integration procedure for linking literature and theory to research data in MMR.
  • To enhance the meaningful integration of literature review and theoretical dimensions within the MMR integration trilogy.

Main Methods:

  • Developed and applied the collaging technique in two exploratory sequential nurse-led mixed-methods studies.
  • The collaging technique involves synthesizing multiple data fragments, figures, and textual information within a single visual representation.

Main Results:

  • Collaging facilitates the creation of pre-post linkages between data, literature, and theory.
  • This technique aids in generating meaning and refining inferences and meta-inferences from integrated data.
  • It enables intensive data analysis, embedding literature and theory insights throughout the process.

Conclusions:

  • The collaging integration procedure offers a novel method for meaningful integration in MMR.
  • Nurse researchers can utilize collaging for effective integration, enhancing rigor in the literature review and theoretical dimensions.
  • This technique promotes a more fully integrated MMR design by incorporating overlooked dimensions.
