“…This lack of integration may result in separate publications with quantitative and qualitative results rather than integrated mixed methods papers. Several sets of guidelines and critiques are available to facilitate high-quality integrated mixed methods products (e.g., 17, 60, 61).…”

Mixed methods research—i.e., research that draws on both qualitative and qualitative methods in varying configurations—is well suited to address the increasing complexity of public health problems and their solutions. This review focuses specifically on innovations in mixed methods evaluations of intervention, program or policy (i.e., practice) effectiveness and implementation. The article begins with an overview of the structure, function and process of different mixed methods designs and then provides illustrations of their use in effectiveness studies, implementation studies, and combined effectiveness-implementation hybrid studies. The article then examines four specific innovations: procedures for transforming (or “quantitizing”) qualitative data, applying rapid assessment and analysis procedures in the context of mixed methods studies, development of measures to assess implementation outcomes, and strategies for conducting both random and purposive sampling particularly in implementation-focused evaluation research. The article concludes with an assessment of challenges to integrating qualitative and quantitative data in evaluation research.

“…Although numerous mixed methods studies purport to include grounded theory can be found in the literature, there are few exemplar mixed method-grounded theory (MM-GT) studies that can serve as models to guide this form of research (Johnson, McGowan, & Turner, 2010). Unfortunately, methodological detail is often vague or incomplete in published MM-GT studies, and the reader is left wondering about the specific procedures used, despite repeated calls across disciplines for increasing transparency in reporting research (American Educational Research Association, 2006) and particularly mixed methods research (O’Brien, Harris, Beckman, Reed, & Cook, 2014; Onwuegbuzie & Poth, 2016). Furthermore, the methodological literature offers relatively little guidance, with the exception of a helpful introduction to the concept and term mixed methods–grounded theory (MM-GT) from Johnson et al (2010; see also Babchuk, 2015).…”

Key scholars have lauded benefits of integrating mixed methods and grounded theory-or mixed methods-grounded theory (MM-GT)-yet there have been few attempts to ascertain in what ways researchers use MM-GT. Our aim was to systematically, but not exhaustively, examine applications of MM-GT and offer procedural guidelines. We identified 61 empirical MM-GT articles and developed a codebook for analysis. MM-GT was widely used across disciplines. Most published MM-GT provided little methodological detail regarding grounded theory, mixed methods, and their integration; theoretical development was noticeably absent; and the majority followed a convergent mixed methods design. This inquiry contributes to emerging discussions regarding the ways in which MM-GT can or should be used to more fully realize the potential of this approach.

“…For more information about assessing the research integrity or quality of mixed methods, see previous suggestions from a methods perspective (Creswell and Plano Clark, 2018), a methodological perspective according to the criteria of “legitimation” (Collins, 2015; Johnson & Christensen, 2017; Onwuegbuzie & Johnson, 2006) from a research process orientation to mixed methods (O’Cathain, 2010), and from an empirical perspective (Fàbregues, Paré, & Meneses, 2019). Also, see the Onwuegbuzie and Poth (2016) empirically derived checklist for mixed methods research manuscript quality assessment.…”

Journal of Mixed Methods Research (JMMR) we are excited with the growing number of scholars around the world who are conducting highly innovative mixed methods studies and submitting their innovative mixed methods work to the journal. With the growth in interest, we have seen an increase among authors new to the journal who are less familiar with the elements that constitute a compelling mixed methods study. We appreciate and applaud the highly thoughtful and innovative ideas from the current mixed methods researchers community. Herein, our purpose is to provide transparency about elements in articles that we believe help advance the methodology of mixed methods research, and guidance to those new to the mixed methods research community through the use of a checklist. JMMR is a methodological journal and all articles must add value and contribute to the advancement of mixed methods research methodology. Therefore, all articles are methodological papers, as they must emphasize methodological characteristics and highlight the contribution to the latest mixed methods literature. In this editorial, we present a checklist of methodology elements for inclusion for both empirical methodological mixed methods research articles and methodological/theoretical articles that are submitted for consideration of publication in JMMR. We hope that these elements may also be helpful for authors submitting mixed methods methodological manuscripts as chapters for inclusion in handbooks or other methods-focused journals. This checklist is not a rigid standard or requirement for authors to use, but recommended elements for inclusion that we have found through experience to best present a methodological contribution to the mixed methods literature. We anticipate that this checklist will primarily benefit those new to JMMR. In the following, we review the major categories of articles accepted at JMMR, we introduce the rationale for a checklist advancing the methodology of mixed methods research, and provide a
