项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The overarching goal of this proposal entitled, "Mixed Methods Research Training Program for the Health Sciences" is to provide a state-of-the-art methodology training program to enhance the mixed methods skills of investigators (in response to RFA-OD-13-009). Mixed methods research is defined as the collection, analysis, and integration of both quantitative (e.g., RCT outcome) data and qualitative (e.g., observations, interviews) data to provide a more comprehensive understanding of a research problem than might be obtained through either alone. Public health researchers are increasingly using mixed methods approaches without substantive training in the latest scientific techniques. Yet, an increase in proposals submitted to NIH using mixed methods reflects the growing awareness of the importance of this approach in addressing population and behavioral health. The proposal is timely in that NIH (OBSSR) issued "best practices" recommendations in 2011. No other national program in mixed methods education and mentorship exists for the health sciences. The specific aims of this training program are: (1) to identify and recruit investigators (called Scholars) using mixed methods approaches to the Mixed Methods Research Training Program; (2) to provide a mentoring- based research training program in mixed methods research that addresses study designs, data collection, measurement, theme development, data analysis procedures, visualization of designs and procedures, and models of exemplary mixed methods NIH-funded studies through didactic instruction, individualized feedback and project consultation, use of online educational materials, and carefully-designed immediate and long-term assessments; and, (3) to evaluate the outcomes (both short-term and long-term) of the Mixed Methods Research Training Program using metrics of skills development, research performance, and capacity building. We will recruit 14 investigators per year who will participate in a 3-day training program supplemented with webinars and other activities. We will match participants with resource consultants across the United States. After matching, and following an introductory webinar on mixed methods, we will provide an interactive 3-day summer course on mixed methods research. Following the summer course, the Scholars will interact with Program Directors and consultants through on-line conversations and learning communities that will help them further develop their research training through application to their area of interes. An evaluation plan will provide individual metrics and allow ongoing program monitoring and revision.

描述（由申请人提供）：该提案的总体目标题为“健康科学的混合方法研究培训计划”是提供一个最先进的方法论培训计划，以增强研究人员的混合方法技能（响应RFA-OD-13-009）。混合方法研究被定义为定量（例如RCT结果）数据和定性（例如观察结果，访谈）数据的收集，分析和集成，以提供对研究问题的更全面的了解，而不是单独通过任何一种。公共卫生研究人员越来越多地使用混合方法方法，而无需在最新科学技术中进行实质性培训。然而，使用混合方法提交给NIH的提案的增加反映了人们对这种方法在解决人群和行为健康方面的重要性的越来越多。该提案是及时的，因为NIH（OBSR）在2011年发布了“最佳实践”建议。健康科学中没有其他国家混合方法教育和指导的计划。该培训计划的具体目的是：（1）使用混合方法研究培训计划的混合方法方法来识别和招募研究人员（称为学者）；（2）在混合方法研究中提供基于指导的研究培训计划，以解决研究设计，数据收集，测量，主题开发，数据分析程序，设计和程序的可视化以及示例性混合方法的模型NIH资助的研究通过教学教学，个性化的反馈和项目咨询，对在线教育材料的使用，并使用在线教育材料以及仔细研究的评估，以及精心策划的评估；（3）使用技能开发，研究绩效和能力建设的指标来评估混合方法研究培训计划的结果（短期和长期）。我们每年将招募14名调查人员，他们将参加为3天的培训计划，其中包括网络研讨会和其他活动。我们将将参与者与美国各地的资源顾问相匹配。匹配之后，并在混合方法进行了介绍性网络研讨会之后，我们将提供有关混合方法研究的互动式3天夏季课程。在夏季课程之后，学者将通过在线对话和学习社区与计划导演和顾问进行互动，这将帮助他们通过应用到自己的Interes领域进一步发展研究培训。评估计划将提供个人指标，并允许正在进行的计划监控和修订。
