A mixed methods approach, combining quantitative with qualitative data methods and analysis, offers a promising means of advancing the study of violence. Integrating semi-structured interviews and qualitative analysis into a quantitative program of research on women's sexual victimization has resulted in valuable scientific insight and generation of novel hypotheses for testing. This mixed methods approach is described and recommendations for integrating qualitative data into quantitative research are provided.
混合方法,将定量与定性数据方法和分析相结合,为推进暴力研究提供了有希望的手段。将半结构化访谈和定性分析纳入女性性受害的定量研究方案中,产生了有价值的科学见解,并为检验提供了新的假设。本文描述了这种混合方法,并提供了将定性数据纳入定量研究的建议。
