Q methodology is a unique research tradition with an epistemology and technique that is much more than the Q-sort form of instrumentation used to gather data. Developed to explore and understand the richness of human subjectivity, Q methodology, with its emphasis on the individual, is relevant to many substantive areas of scientific inquiry within nursing. This article presents an overview of the technique and delineates special considerations for implementing Q methodological investigations.
Q方法是一种独特的研究传统，其认识论和技术远不止于用于收集数据的Q分类法工具形式。Q方法旨在探索和理解人类主观性的丰富性，强调个体，与护理领域许多科学探究的实质性领域相关。本文概述了该技术，并阐述了实施Q方法研究的特殊注意事项。
