This paper describes the development of an innovative research approach which used the complementary methods of simulation and post-simulation interview to examine the knowledge-base involved in community nursing assessment practice in the United Kingdom. The study commenced in 1994 and the main phase of data-gathering took place over a 3-week period in 1995. Having outlined the study's aim, context and theoretical background, this paper focuses on the two main methods of data-gathering used. Detailed description of the simulation method and the post-simulation interview and the rationales for their use are followed by critical discussion which identifies their particular strengths and weaknesses. Threats to validity are also considered. It is argued that the combined use of a simulated assessment and a post-simulation structured interview has great potential as a means of exploring the knowledge involved in community nursing assessment practice.
本文描述了一种创新研究方法的发展，该方法运用模拟和模拟后访谈的互补方法，来审视英国社区护理评估实践中所涉及的知识基础。该研究始于1994年，主要数据收集阶段于1995年历时3周进行。在概述了研究目的、背景和理论背景之后，本文重点关注所使用的两种主要数据收集方法。在详细描述模拟方法、模拟后访谈及其使用原理之后，紧接着进行批判性讨论，以确定它们的特定优势和劣势。还考虑了效度的威胁因素。本文认为，将模拟评估和模拟后结构化访谈结合使用，作为探索社区护理评估实践中所涉及知识的一种手段，具有巨大潜力。
