“…Citu valstu pētījumos minēts, ka diferencācija var būt atkarīga no dzimuma: vīriešiem parasti ir augstāks sociālās iesaistīšanās un politiskās līdzdalības līmenis (sasaistošais SK), savukārt sievietes parasti veido spēcīgākas sociālās saiknes ar tuvākajiem (piesaistošais SK) (Souto et al, 2020). Ir pētnieki, kas aicina koncentrēties uz dažādiem vīriešu un sieviešu SK profiliem (Hodgkin, 2008).…”

This article describes the development and initial validation of the second version of the Multidimensional Social Capital Scale (MSCS V2). The scale is based on the concept of Social Capital (SC) developed based on the results of the Rapid Review. The developed theoretical concept covers such types of SC as bonding, bridging, and linking, and there are two dimensions in each of these types: cognitive and structural. The initial version of the Multidimensional Social Capital Scale (MSCS) covered only the cognitive dimension of all three types of SC. This study aimed to develop an improved second expanded version of the MSCS V2 and to evaluate its psychometric properties. Data were collected online in the period from 11th June to 3rd October 2021, using a cross-sectional study design and a convenience sample strategy (N=353, 87% women and 13% men), aged between 18 and 80 years, M=41.8 years). As a result, the 25-item version of the MSCS V2 was developed. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) revealed a 6-factor structure that encompasses the following types and elements of cognitive dimension: two types of bonding (Perceived social support or family members and close friends and Sense of belonging), two types of bridging (Perceived social support for acquaintances and General social trust), one type of linking (Institutional trust) and for Structural dimension: one type of bonding (Social participation). This 6-factor structure was approved using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). Overall, the items are internally consistent on all scales (α = .73 - .90). Findings from this study showed significant evidence for the reliability and validity of the MSCS V2 and it would be advisable to repeat the study in a homogeneous sample, including full socio-demographic data.

“…Positions on methods, however, tend to become ossified when articulated in terms of paradigms (Biesta, 2010). This is evident in the "incompatibility thesis", which argues that quantitative methods are rooted exclusively in a positivist paradigm and are therefore incompatible with the constructionist paradigm that underpins qualitative methods (Doyle, Brady, & Byrne, 2009;Hodgkin, 2008). Quantitative research is characterized as involving an objective process of deduction, whereas the qualitative process is seen as involving a subjective process of induction in a particular context (Morgan cited in Doyle, Brady, & Byrne, 2009).…”

“…MMR can, effectively and reflexively applied, addressing the weaknesses of single method studies (Mirchandani et al, 2016) -for example, the weakness in large quantitative studies of over-interpreting data, and in qualitative studies, of poor representation and a tendency to overgeneralize (Hodgkin, 2008). It can help explore and answer research questions that cannot be answered by quantitative or qualitative methods alone (Creswell & Plano Clark, 2007) by providing a more complete and comprehensive picture of a phenomenon (Doyle, Brady & Byrne, 2009).…”

Studies in the Education of Adults

ESREA is a European scientific society. It was established in 1991 to provide a European-wide forum for all researchers engaged in research on adult education and learning and to promote and disseminate theoretical and empirical research in the field. Since 1991 the landscape of adult education and learning has changed to include more diverse learning contexts at formal and informal levels. At the same time there has been a policy push by the European Union, OECD, UNESCO and national governments to promote a policy of lifelong learning. ESREA provides an important space for these changes and (re)definition of adult education and learning in relation to research, theory, policy and practice to be reflected upon and discussed. This takes place at the triennial conference, network conferences and through the publication of books and a journal. ESREA RESEARCH NETWORKSThe major priority of ESREA is the encouragement of co-operation between active researchers in the form of thematic research networks which encourage inter-disciplinary research drawing on a broad range of the social sciences. These research networks hold annual/biennial seminars and conferences for the exchange of research

“…One of the main assumptions of this procedure is using a quantitative approach to test theories, followed by a qualitative method that involves a detailed exploration with a few individuals. For example, Hodgkin (2008) used a sequential quantitative-QUALITATIVE approach to study women's social capital. First, the author conducted a survey to identify different social capital profiles in the population.…”

“…First, the author conducted a survey to identify different social capital profiles in the population. In a second step, Hodgkin (2008) used in-depth interviews to illuminate the stories behind these profiles with a few participants. The author argues, that the sequential approach allows to give a more powerful voice to groups that are not heard otherwise, in our case it will be the young people themselves.…”

The promotion of positive mental health is a becoming priority worldwide. Despite all the efforts invested in preventive and curative work, it is estimated that one in four persons will experience a mental health condition at some point in their lives. Even more worrying is the fact that up to a half of all mental health problems have their onset before the age of 14. Recent statistics (national and international surveys, meta-analyses, international reports) point out to the fact that child and adolescent mental health problems are on the rise. The present study will try to corroborate these results and further explore their meaning, by employing a sequential mixed methods research design (quantitativequalitative). The quantitative part will analyze time trends using Health Behaviors in School-aged Children data (four survey cycles: 2002, 2006, 2010, 2014) on mental wellbeing from four European countries (the Czechia, Germany, Italy, and United Kingdom). The qualitative part will rely on focus groups to explore the perspectives of 13-and 15-year-old boys and girls on gender differences and on the changes in adolescent mental well-being over time, as well as measures through which these issues could be addressed. Thematic analysis will be employed to analyze qualitative data. The results of this study could make a major contribution to our understanding of the current trends in adolescent mental well-being, as well as the ways in which existing data could be linked to international and national health policies.
