“…Qualitatively driven mixed methods privilege the qualitative approach (Hesse‐Biber et al., 2015). Drawing on qualitatively driven mixed methods offers the opportunity to generate multi‐dimensional material (Gabb, 2009) and permits a more holistic insight into experiences that can be understood from a combination of epistemological and ontological stances (Frost & Nolas, 2011), suggesting that the ability to perceive these layers is rooted in paradigmatic flexibility.…”

“…Qualitatively driven mixed methods offer the opportunity to explore and understand phenomena and its complexities in a manner that is not bound by methodological dogma and constraints (Elichaoff et al., 2014). This approach also pursues access to unique perspectives on experience and seeks to highlight the dynamism and complexity of phenomena by its use of multiple paradigms (Hesse‐Biber et al., 2015).…”

Many researchers and clinicians take an ‘either, or’ position regarding factors responsible for change when conducting research. Qualitatively driven mixed methods privilege the qualitative approach and offer the opportunity to generate multi‐dimensional material, permitting a more holistic insight into experiences that can be understood from a combination of epistemological and ontological stances. A qualitatively driven mixed‐methods approach apply a ‘both, and’ position when exploring the elements that produce change or that are under investigation, which can be of particular value to counselling and psychotherapy research. There are various ways of engaging with qualitatively driven mixed methods. Some designs include both qualitative and quantitative components, where the former is the core element. The secondary component may also be qualitative, known as a multimethod design. Yet, other designs mix different qualitative approaches, through the application of different qualitative analyses to the same data (pluralistic qualitative research). This paper discusses the application and value of qualitatively driven mixed methods in counselling and psychotherapy research through the presentation of two research case studies; one which mixes both qualitative and quantitative components to investigate the experiences of pain alleviation following a CBT pain management programme; and one which applies a pluralistic approach to a counselling psychology doctorate exploring the experiences and meanings attached to self‐harming. Through illustration and discussion of the case studies’ mixed‐methods approaches, this paper demonstrates that qualitatively driven mixed methods produce a more enhanced and holistic understanding into phenomena, and therefore a more balanced perspective to counselling and psychotherapy research.

“…Interestingly enough, the multimethod approach (and its creators) is given the stage in a chapter on "Designing Multimethod Research" (Hunter & Brewer, 2015) or integrated in more general MMR chapters. Second, a strong emphasis is laid on the approach of a qualitatively driven approach to MMR in the Handbook (e.g., in Hesse-Biber, Rodriguez, & Frost, 2015). This discussion has been going on for some time before, which is on one hand a step forward, as more room and interest are given to qualitative research in MMR.…”

Mantras and Myths

Critiques about the development in mixed-methods research (MMR) by some of its protagonists mention the following: ignorance of earlier developments, too much focus on designs rather than issues, more a metaphor than a mode of research, the belief in paradigms, and too much focus on methods instead of theoretical and methodological issues. Myths and mantras in the MMR literature are discussed here. For overcoming the limitations of MMR becoming evident in these critiques, myths, and mantras, triangulation is discussed. A revitalization of this concept in recent formulations (triangulation 3.0; systematic triangulation of perspectives) outlines triangulation as a framework of a critical and reflexive MMR.

“…We designed a qualitatively driven mixed methods longitudinal study (Johnson et al, 2007), which consists of concurrent qualitative and quantitative research elements. Qualitative approach was privileged over the nested quantitative method taking on a secondary role in the mixed methods design, which enabled a more comprehensive study of the relational perspectives (Hesse-Biber et al, 2015). Quantitative data were collected in the baseline and end-of-programme survey (3-point Likert-scale and ranking).…”

Rebuilding faculty capacities in higher education: An alternative for relational mentoring

The aim of this study is to explore how Hungarian university teachers at a faculty of social sciences adapt developmental initiations in mentoring relationships. These relationships are designed to maximise reflective space through various mentoring structures without predefined mentoring roles. This study presents findings from a pilot faculty mentoring programme involving faculty (n = 13) from the same institution who joined on a voluntary basis for 6 months. For the analysis of the programme, baseline and end of programme survey, participants' reflective diaries and transcripts of the final focus groups were used. The content analysis of the qualitative data was supplemented by quasi-statistical descriptive analysis of the quantitative dataset. The relational perspective of the mentoring programme design nurtured (1) the multi-directional nature of the learning cycles, (2) the diverse content of the professional discussions, and (3) the programme impact on the individuals' workplace well-being.
