Research in the field of health promotion generates evidence-based knowledge and has the potential to increase the acceptance, impact and long-term effectiveness of interventions. Typically, a distinction is made between qualitative and quantitative approaches. Yet, with complex and multidimensional re-search questions in the field of health promotion a combination of the two approaches has proven useful. Using mixed-methods designs promises, among other things, to compensate for weaknesses of the individual methods, to improve the scope of the results, and to provide a comprehensive insight into the topic. In this systematic review of two German journals we examine the role of the mixed-methods approach in the field of health promotion and how it can be translated into specific research projects. The review's results show that mixed-methods designs are implemented in various contexts. In most studies, the quantitative research strand plays the central role. The use of the mixed-methods designs in health promotion can be further discussed, especially taking into account technical innovations in the field of data collection or with regard to the interpretative potential of qualitative research. The presentation of the review is based on PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) by the Equator Network.
健康促进领域的研究产生基于证据的知识,并有可能提高干预措施的接受度、影响力和长期效果。通常,定性和定量方法之间存在区别。然而,在健康促进领域面对复杂和多维度的研究问题时,已证明将这两种方法结合起来是有用的。采用混合方法设计有望弥补个别方法的不足,扩大研究结果的范围,并对该主题提供全面的见解。在对两份德语期刊的系统综述中,我们研究了混合方法在健康促进领域中的作用以及如何将其转化为具体的研究项目。综述结果表明,混合方法设计在各种情况下都有应用。在大多数研究中,定量研究部分起着核心作用。在健康促进中使用混合方法设计可以进一步探讨,特别是考虑到数据收集领域的技术创新或定性研究的解释潜力。本综述的呈现基于赤道网络的PRISMA(系统综述和荟萃分析的首选报告项目)。
