Research that employs mixed methods can yield robust data that is both more reliable and valid than that arising from a single-method approach. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMixed-methods research is a vital component in responding to recent changes to the more complex needs of an increasingly diverse society and its health sector. This book covers how mixed-methods research can be designed creatively and applied sensitively in the context of wellbeing and health research. The editors have included a set of bespoke questions for reflection at the end of each chapter. The expert editorial commentary highlights the benefits and methodological challenges of mixed-methods research as well as 'thinking points' for researchers as they plan and carry out mixed-methods research on wellbeing and health topics. Within a holistic view of wellbeing and health, the mixed-methods research designs are applied appropriately in both practice and community settings. The research can be shaped by pragmatism and the actual needs of a study rather than purely theoretical considerations.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis practical book makes high-quality, mixed-methods research design and execution guidance readily accessible to health-care practitioners and researchers working in the fields of health, social care and wellbeing services and to undergraduate and postgraduate students in courses in research and health-care studies, as well as health management.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRachel Locke\u003c\/strong\u003e is Senior Lecturer in International Development and Global Health in the Faculty of Health and Wellbeing at the University of Winchester, UK. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAmanda Lees is a Senior Researcher in the Health and Wellbeing Research Group at the University of Winchester, UK.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 234\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.55 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 06, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47411821215922,"sku":"9780367207786","price":103.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/3891\/1666\/files\/603813767763fcb41be73f0b3ed8ee3b.webp?v=1778308127","url":"https:\/\/box.dadyminds.org\/products\/mixed-methods-research-in-wellbeing-and-health-paperback","provider":"DADYMINDS BOX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
