“…However, the MM has been poorly adopted and applied based on the existing evaluating standards. It could have negatively impacted the studies' perception of this method (Askun & Cizel, 2020;Bartholomew & Lockard, 2018;Fàbregues et al, 2020). It emphasizes the need for authors to abreast themselves with existing reports (Levitt et al, 2018) on the approach's best practices.…”

“…The extant works are specific in their presentation of issues within the scope of SSR's trends and challenges. Scandura and Williams' (2000) study was limited to political science disciplines.) McKie and Ryan's (2012) work was on trends and challenges in sociological research; Aro-Gordon (2015) paper was mostly a tutorial on research methodology and statistics.…”

Social sciences research (SSR) is an enterprise that is continuously evolving, but not without some debilitating issues that impede the realization of its full potential and usefulness. SSR, as a human initiative and activity, is discussed. The paper features the current methods and authorship issues that enhance the research outcomes' validity. The argument advanced because while scholars continue to explore processes for research advancement, minimize where possible by putting an end to vices such as falsification, plagiarism, inappropriate methodology, and wrong data analysis. At the same time, while significant challenges are related to misconduct and dishonesty. The present paper expanded and updated the literature and proposed bringing the resources available to the social science researchers to enhance research outcomes. Overall, the paper recommends continuous strives for tools, and process enhancement and a demonstration of integrity by the stakeholders in SSR conduct to achieve field acceptance.

Introduction: Coal consumption for electrical energy at Steam Power Plant increase often with economic and population growth. Burning coal produces harmful pollutants such as PM2.5 and SO2 affecting public health problems and decline in social and economic conditions. Therefore, implement the strategies are needed to reduce risks and long-term impacts on the environment. The research aimed to analyze the risk and impact of air pollutants exposure and develop control strategies. Methods: This study used the methods of environmental health risk analysis, analysis of the level of understanding and perception, cost of illness analysis, and Strength, Weakness, Opportunities, and Threats analysis, Data obtained by survey, interviews using questionnaire instrument to 293 respondents, five experts to determine risk control strategies and the secondary data from Environmental Agency of Bekasi Regency. Results and Discussion: The result showed that most risk is 13-55 years old, and people who live less than two square kilometres from the power plant. The level of public understanding and perception resulted in moderate criteria. The average cost of illness is 14.51% of the average monthly income of each person. The recommendation strategies are implemented regulations of power plant location, providing guidelines for environmental controlling, air quality control regularly, tightening air quality standards, prioritizing air pollution control budgets, providing green space, implementing clean energy and renewable energy, and building capacity air quality control. Conclusion: The production of electrical energy on Steam Power Plant had an air pollution impact such as health problems, decreased income, and social disruption. Air pollution control includes structural and nonstructural strategies from internal and external Steam Power Plant to provide environmentally friendly energy production for the communities.

“…The mixed method is a research method in which data is collected using quantitative and qualitative methods and mixed by integrating or establishing relationships with each other . The mixed method includes many philosophical assumptions and research processes in which data analysis applications and qualitative approaches are related (Askun & Cizel, 2020). The use of mixed method designs is widespread because different research methods are needed to investigate different aspects of reality.…”

This edition contains of two articles on mixed methods research that we believe will assist you, the reader, in conceptualizing and solving problems related to developing a research or a manuscript with a mixed methods design. The current issue includes two articles: the first, which is called 'The Coast Guard School: Officer Candidates' Opinions' is a a mixed methods study with a questionnaire variant design in mixed convergent design. In this study it was aimed to determine and understand the opinions of the school and the training program of the Officer Candidates who received basic training in the Coast Guard School. The findings revealed opinions and suggestions from the officer candidates that will take the Coast Guard School forward.The second which is called 'Metaphoric Images of School Managers on Covid-19 Pandemic Process: A Mixed Method Research' is a convergent design mixed method research. In this study, it was aimed to reveal the metaphorical images formulated by school managers working in educational institutions affiliated to the Ministry of National Education on covid-19 pandemic process. The findings showed that metaphors can be used as a powerful tool to understand and make sense of the situation that participants are in.These articles are designed to offer thoughts, insight, suggestions, samples and ideas on mixed methods researches done so far and how to decide and develop a mixed methods research. According to the guidance and the results of articles in this issue, researchers could shape their future mixed methods researches.We hope you enjoy the articles in this first issue of the journal and find them informative and useful for designing and developing MMR. Please remember that articles published in JOMES do not reflect the position of the journal's editorial staff, reviewers.
