Values and virtues in qualitative research. And, although life course perspective is central to the way our research is conducted, it is peripheral to our target phenomenon of caregiving in Mexican American families, allowing participants voices to reverberate throughout our re-presentation of data, increasing credibility (Sandelowski, 1993b). Pragmatic marketing refers to a customer-centric framework that encourages you to design products for a specific audience. Such descriptions will enable confirmability/objectivity of the research by demonstrating neutrality in interpretations. 0000004459 00000 n Happ M. Mixed methods in gerontological research: Do the qualitative and the quantitative data touch? This diagram incorporates concepts from the American Geriatrics Society Guiding Principles on the Care of Older Adults with Multimorbidity, 8 the 4Ms Framework from the Age-Friendly Heath Systems, the 4-domain framework of care for older adults with HF, and components of social determinants of health. Johnson, Onwuegbuise and Turner (2007) call this a new research paradigm or culture comprised of shared ontological, epistemological, axiological, aesthetic and methodological beliefs, values and assumptions. Hazlehurst BL, Kurtz SE, Masica A, Stevens VJ, McBurnie MA, Puro JE, Vijayadeva V, Au DH, Brannon ED, Sittig DF. Relying once again on the temporal dimension, we completed equivalent standardized measures with both caregiver and care recipient across the 15 months of their participation in the study, juxtaposing them with concurrent transitions and turning points identified in interviews and trajectory timelines. He did so using a matter-of-fact approach which we also observed in subsequent cases involving sons/mothers, allowing us to generate a predictive hypothesis for further testing: MA males providing personal care for their mothers adopt a matter-of-fact approach as they act against taboo (Evans, Belyea & Ume, 2011). proponents of this philosophy are pragmatic in the sense that their decision on which position or approach to use is determined the research questions; hence it provides for the use of both. Critical perspectives in racial and ethnic differences in health in late life. 2019 Mar 8;4(1):10.5334/cstp.184. This integrative methodology is consonant with the world-view of pragmatism - a leading foundation for mixed method research - where the focus is on the problem in its social and historical context rather than on the method, and multiple relevant forms of data collection are used to answer the research question (s) ( Creswell, 2007 ). <<2D38219CC372CC4B80671DFF40C1B3EB>]/Prev 916961>> The patient experience of patient-centered communication with nurses in the hospital setting: a qualitative systematic review protocol. Inter-rater agreement was established at the 90% level among the research team (Miles & Huberman, 1994). Interviews were transcribed verbatim and checked for accuracy. These constructs reflect cultural and contextual influences from our theoretical framework (Figure 2), which are defined as historical or individual events from childhood or young adulthood that shape the caregiving trajectory, and the cumulative advantages or disadvantages of socioeconomic status (years of education, current income and occupation), race, age, and gender (Elder, 1995; Elder, 2003; McDonough & Berglund 2003; Hertzman, 2004). Consecutive caregiving: a caregiver provides care for one family member after another. This site needs JavaScript to work properly. We used stories of these trajectories, told in telenovela style, as a culturally-appropriate, powerful recruitment tool in Spanish language media, including print, radio, and television. research process using examples from the authors' qualita-tive doctoral projects. Given that this is an exploratory study in an area where little is known, collection of extensive rich qualitative data over time is emphasized, without which, data from standardized instruments would mean little. Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences. We will need to rely on a theoretical framework to understand its effects because the framework, specifies the nature of the intervention, the nature of the effects expected, the processes mediating the expected effects, and the conditions under which the mediating processes occur (p. 12). The spouse struggled to meet the care recipients needs, saying With her hurting and everything, shes just like Jell-O. Evans, B.C., Crogan, N.L., Belyea, M.J., Coon, D.W.

Morgan advocates an inductive approach that first compares observation to theory and then evaluates the results of prior inductions through their predictive ability. Many other practice disciplines, both in and out of health sciences (e.g., architecture, law, engineering, social work, nutrition, medicine, education, business, agronomy, and epidemiology), also are fertile ground for mixed methods research. The assessment process requires constant communication between site-level data providers, data coordinating centers, and principal investigators. SITUATIONS IN WHICH MIXED METHODS APPROACH IS USED. Author manuscript; available in PMC 2012 Oct 1. A related term that many consider pragmatic research is Dissemination and Implementation (or D&I) research, or outside the United States, is often called Knowledge Translation (KT). The ePub format uses eBook readers, which have several "ease of reading" features 0000088255 00000 n It is expected that we will be able to distinguish different social and cultural factors influencing caregiving trajectories and nursing home admission within these typologies, define distinct categories of change in caregiving, and describe patterns for families who continue to provide informal care as compared to those who do not. 0000088344 00000 n Treasure Island (FL): StatPearls Publishing; 2022 Jan. 2022 May 18. A Pragmatic Framework for Single-site and Multisite Data Quality Assessment in Electronic Health Record-based Clinical Research. Nursing often uses explicit theoretical frameworks from nursing or other disciplines as conceptual and organizational hooks upon which to hang a project (Sandelowski, 1999). 0000015795 00000 n Morgan D. Paradigms lost and pragmatism regained: methodological implications of combining qualitative and quantitative methods. youth, pregnant women), and direct relevance of study findings to inform clinical practice [ 6, 7 ]. The constructs of transition and turning point became caregiving transition, a gradual alteration in social, job or family roles and responsibilities which can be incorporated into family life, and caregiving turning point where life is severely disrupted. 0000004044 00000 n Detailed process model for multisite data quality assessment. Based on our experience with Momento Crucial as described in this paper, this armamentarium can be buttressed by a theoretical framework, whether the theoretical framework constitutes the theory of the problem, as in our current descriptive study, or the theory of the intervention, as in our future study. We relied on congruency of our research design with life course perspective as a guiding framework to tackle the maze of mixed methods. HHS Vulnerability Disclosure, Help A mixed methods way of thinking is an orientation toward social inquiry that actively invites us to participate in dialogue about multiple ways of seeing and hearing, multiple ways of making sense of the social world, and multiple standpoints on what is important and to be valued and cherished (Greene, 2008, p. 20). Add the qualitative tradition of a black box in regard to methodological detail, making it difficult for other researchers to follow an audit trail or replicate a study, and the task becomes less and less manageable. For example, we will compare each case in the early phase of caregiving group with every other case in that group; compare each case in the middle and late phases with every other case in its respective group; and compare all cases in the early phase of caregiving group with all the cases in each of the two other caregiving groups. endstream endobj 108 0 obj <>>> endobj 109 0 obj <> endobj 110 0 obj <>/Font<>/ProcSet[/PDF/Text/ImageB/ImageC/ImageI]/Properties<>/XObject<>>>/Rotate 0/TrimBox[0.0 0.0 612.283 790.866]/Type/Page>> endobj 111 0 obj [112 0 R 113 0 R 114 0 R 115 0 R 116 0 R 117 0 R 118 0 R 119 0 R 120 0 R 121 0 R] endobj 112 0 obj <>/Border[0 0 0]/H/N/Rect[192.671 592.986 199.343 578.73]/Subtype/Link/Type/Annot>> endobj 113 0 obj <>/Border[0 0 0]/H/N/Rect[141.495 527.137 242.627 516.605]/Subtype/Link/Type/Annot>> endobj 114 0 obj <>/Border[0 0 0]/H/N/Rect[63.144 225.282 91.8464 215.906]/Subtype/Link/Type/Annot>> endobj 115 0 obj <>/Border[0 0 0]/H/N/Rect[185.47 126.282 189.918 116.906]/Subtype/Link/Type/Annot>> endobj 116 0 obj <>/Border[0 0 0]/H/N/Rect[223.592 115.282 253.16 105.906]/Subtype/Link/Type/Annot>> endobj 117 0 obj <>/Border[0 0 0]/H/N/Rect[533.136 483.306 537.584 473.73]/Subtype/Link/Type/Annot>> endobj 118 0 obj <>/Border[0 0 0]/H/N/Rect[539.808 483.306 544.256 473.73]/Subtype/Link/Type/Annot>> endobj 119 0 obj <>/Border[0 0 0]/H/N/Rect[419.144 164.282 423.392 154.906]/Subtype/Link/Type/Annot>> endobj 120 0 obj <>/Border[0 0 0]/H/N/Rect[483.438 109.282 487.686 99.906]/Subtype/Link/Type/Annot>> endobj 121 0 obj <>/Border[0 0 0]/H/N/Rect[491.486 109.282 495.734 99.906]/Subtype/Link/Type/Annot>> endobj 122 0 obj <> endobj 123 0 obj <> endobj 124 0 obj <> endobj 125 0 obj <> endobj 126 0 obj <> endobj 127 0 obj <> endobj 128 0 obj <>stream A pragmatic approach allows the possibility of choosing the appropriate research methods from the wide range of qualitative and/or quantitative methods, and this pluralism is a strength of pragmatism that has several advantages for social justice research. Abstract . Mixed methods studies can be difficult to locate because the methodology is so new that many researchers fail to use consistent terms to describe their research. To compare results from quantitative and qualitative research To use qualitative research to help explain quantitative findings To explore using qualitative research and then to generalize findings to a large population using quantitative research. Epub 2017 Jul 26. As recruitment progressed, we encountered a phenomenon not described in literature concerning Mexican American families, that of multiple caregivers and multiple care recipients living in a single household. Bookshelf Patient engagement in the design and execution of urologic oncology research. The site is secure. Careers. Clark M, Huttlinger K. Elder care among Mexican American families. Of these 28, 11 came from the discipline of nursing; 10 of these used theoretical frameworks from other disciplines, pointing up the interdisciplinary nature of mixed methods. Thus, we focus on (static and dynamic) techniques for instance reduction and illustrate some experimental results of our implementation of the framework in the MCMT model-checker. 2016 Jul 15;12(7):1053-8. doi: 10.5664/jcsm.5948. Without careful consideration, a theoretical framework could be chosen that has a poor fit with the study, distorts the data, or fails to describe the reality under study (Sandelowski, 1993b; 2000b). Singer B, Ryff CD. Collecting and interpreting qualitative materials. This paradigm is totally opposite to positivist paradigm and constructivism. What cultural and contextual circumstances are associated with caregiver burden/strain? Knowledge obtained by such practical approaches is not pedestrian but particular (Sandelowski, 1996), and satisfies our disciplinary needs to improve individual clients daily lives. Such problems may fall outside the usual bounds of inquiry because they are unstable or unique; set within complex, uncertain, puzzling, and ill-defined contexts; and contain stakeholder conflicts concerning desired solutions. Although sometimes implicit, 21 of the studies used formal theories (those employing a group of tested or testable concepts or propositions), 4 integrated 1formal theory with another or with a concept such as role entrapment, while 3 used well-researched constructs such as loss and grief as a theoretical background.

For example, we used latent class analysis to calculate differences in distress across time in caregiving trajectories and plotted results of standardized instruments over time for comparison with themes identified in interviews and timelines in a comparative case study of two sons providing care for their mothers. The evolving of mixed methods could be construed as constituting a third methodological movement, following quantitative and qualitative approaches (Teddlie & Tashakkori, 2003), that is composed of distinctive mixing of practices from these other methodologies (Greene, 2008). 0000010121 00000 n J Clin Sleep Med. Moreover, very little is written about the role of an explicit conceptual or theoretical framework, as understood and utilized in nursing, to organize and guide the phases of inquiry in a mixed methods study. We used a demographic questionnaire and the General Acculturation Index to collect those data. The theory contains the key construct of temporality that permits true longitudinal study of transitions and turning points, in real time, in caregiving of Mexican-American families (Wethington, 2005) and allows integration of disparate explanations for differences in caregiver burden/strain and gain (Pearce & Davey Smith, 2003; George, 2003; Singer & Ryff, 1999). The authors declare no conflict of interest. startxref Speaking of her assumption of the caregiving role, one young woman reported. Exploring the nature of research questions in mixed methods research. Theory fit the data when it permits comparisons to its components and offers an organizing framework for re-presentation of data. Caregivers choose the start date of the trajectory, naming events that later influenced care and their dates, so that researchers could further explore and understand culturally and socially constructed notions about transitions and turning points (Scanlon-Mogel & Roberto, 2004). J Mix Methods Res. In regard to transferability, we ask how knowledge created through action and reflection can be used in a new setting and examine our evidentiary warrant for doing so. H\j0E Each box of the framework represents speciic responsibilities and activities that must be performed by the product team. Forthofer M. Status of mixed methods in the health sciences.

Hierarchies of life histories and associated health risks. %PDF-1.4 % Epistemologically, pragmatism is premised on the idea This integrative methodology is consonant with the world-view of pragmatism - a leading foundation for mixed method research - where the focus is on the problem in its social and historical context rather than on the method, and multiple relevant forms of data collection are used to answer the research question(s) (Creswell, 2007). In an effort to increase utilization/application of our findings for other researchers, we attempt to enhance external validity/transferability/fittingness by attending to congruency with life course perspective theory, considering cultural and linguistic accuracy in translation and interpretation, and making the findings intellectually accessible to other researchers by working iteratively between life course perspective and thorough, specific, detailed descriptions of data collection and analytic procedures. From these 11 studies, it appears that those with an explicit theoretical framework, threaded throughout the study, were more likely to integrate qualitative with quantitative data. Because our conceptual process in this study is one of discovery, and our aims and research questions are answered predominantly by qualitative, case-oriented data, the theoretical drive is inductive (QUAL + quant; Morse & Niehaus, 2009). Finally, we will consider the question of their utility and necessity. Sandelowski M. Combining qualitative and quantitative sampling, data collection, and analysis techniques in mixed-methods studies. . Major constructs associated with life course perspective include trajectories, transitions, turning points, timing of life events, adaptive strategies, and cultural and contextual differences (Wethington, 2005; Pearce & Davey Smith, 2003; Settersten, 1999; Moen, 2003). What family transitions and turning points in the caregiving trajectory are related to nursing home admission? Pragmatism is a paradigm that includes ideas, methods, approaches, principals, or a mix of these to explain a solution to a research problem. You just have to learn to breathe differently.. Using questions from a protocol based on life course perspective, we defined terms and asked caregivers to recall transitions, turning points, and adaptive strategies, indicating them on the timeline. 0000002978 00000 n Bookshelf For example, in Table 1, case-oriented data (Mrs. Macias and her 32 year-old caregiving daughter) will be quantitized by dichotomizing transition categories (caregiver pregnancy: 0 [no] or 1 [yes]; caregiver marriage: 0 [no] or 1 [yes]) and turning points (birth: 0 [no] or 1 [yes]) for comparison with variable-oriented data (Zarit Burden Index, Caregiver Vigilance Scale, CLOX, Activities of Daily Living/Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scales). To support our case-oriented approach, we collected data on variables from the theoretical framework (Figure 2) such as burden/strain (Zarit Burden Interview, Penn State Worry Questionnaire, General Well-Being; Caregiver Vigilance Scale) and cognitive, mood, and functional status as it affects burden/strain (CLOX, Katz Activities of Daily Living, Lawton Instrumental Activities of Daily Living; Geriatric Depression Scale, Center for Epidemiological Studies-Depression). It is recommended to manually change and color-code the PowerPoint version of the Framework as an alternative. Later on, when youve architected the solution, the approach is different: physical prototype, demos, focus groups. Life course perspective also provided an opportunity for us to quantify the breadth and depth of data collection over time for other researchers. The .gov means its official. In: Tashakkori A, Teddlie C, editors. We tag team it between all three of us. This paper offers guidance on taking a pragmatic approach to analysis, which entails strategically combining and borrowing from established qualitative approaches to meet a study's needs, typically with guidance from an existing framework and with explicit research and practice change goals. FOIA 0000011511 00000 n The stratified purposeful sampling plan also was informationally representative (Sandelowski, 2000b), in that it included, and ensured case variation on, pre-specified variables such as the caregiver-care recipient relationship, gender, acculturation, function, and cognitive status. Early Hum Dev. These concepts form the building blocks for the theory. If this is characteristic of nursing studies, then use of such a framework might go far to ensure integration, a crucial component of any mixed methods federal grant submission. You may notice problems with It is that conundrum that leads practitioners naturally to mixed methods where complementary approaches can accommodate scientific rigor and theory alongside uncertainty and instability. 0000088814 00000 n 0000081225 00000 n leaked music google drive 2022; espn erin andrews naked video. There will be some opportunity for statistical generalization of quantitative data results, based on multilevel modeling, during the initial analytic phase before the two data sets are combined. Also, although there is very little extant literature in regard to positive outcomes of providing care even in Anglo families, we knew we would be able to explore those issues using the cultural and contextual components of with Mexican-American families. Another framework useful in pragmatic research is RE-AIM (re-aim.org) (11-13). 5. When you were little, your parents changed your diapers so now that they are older, its up to you to take care of them. Critical components of multisite data quality assessment include: thoughtful prioritization of variables and data quality dimensions for assessment; development and use of standardized approaches to data quality assessment that can improve data utility over time; iterative cycles of assessment within and between sites; targeting assessment toward data domains known to be vulnerable to quality problems; and detailed documentation of the rationale and outcomes of data quality assessments to inform data users. We also knew that our intensive case- and variable-oriented analysis would enable early detection of problematic transitions and turning points where family caregiving is threatened, and lead to future culturally-responsive, patient-centered, customized interventions to keep elders in their homes. In essence, this investigation is driven by a pragmatic desire to evaluate the pragmatist paradigm in relation to the success of its practical application as a frame-work for research. To what degree are changes in caregivers capabilities and care recipients cognitive and functional status over time related to nursing home admission? Multiple data quality assessment cycles occur at both the single-site and multisite level. Generating an ePub file may take a long time, please be patient. 0000002378 00000 n However, the use of the case-oriented approach will, primarily, make possible logical or case generalizations, as opposed to statistical generalization. (2006) for case-oriented analyses, we are now in the preliminary stages of plotting all data collected from each of the 110 cases over time, showing central themes from all interviews and scores from all measures for each of the 6 data points. Nursing research: Principles and methods. 0000070184 00000 n Pragmatic Enterprise Architecture Framework | The Transformation of Transformation Don't forget - Our frameworks DO NOT REPLACE your current processes. Speaking in favor of theoretical frameworks, one might argue that the need for creative and efficient ways of implementing mixed methods studies will only grow as the utility of the approach becomes increasingly clear. Pearce N, Davey Smith G. Is social capital the key to inequalities in health? Since I cant lift him off the bed, one of my sons will sit him in the wheelchair to bring him in to eat.. This workbook was designed for those using the gap analysis, as published by Pragmatic Marketing. Life Course Perspective: Caregiving Trajectory. Data quality assessment is particularly important in multisite studies to distinguish true variations in care from data quality problems. As we coded the 660 interviews using a manual derived from the constructs of life course perspective (described above), new themes emerged that enriched the theoretical framework. It's all about delivering a product that solves your customers' actual problems. Creswell J, Tashakkori A.

For example, in our case study of two Mexican American males providing personal care for their aged mothers (Evans, Belyea & Ume, 2011), we reported one mans approach to cleaning and changing his mother after a bowel movement. The call has gone out for practice disciplines to use more fully the full armamentarium of concepts, techniques, and terminology associated with mixed methods in order to manage the increasing complexity of research (Twinn, 2003). Transl Res. Interviewing: The art of science. One was merely explication of a protocol that provided no discussion, although it employed a theoretical framework in design, sample, qualitative data collection and analysis.
