Abstract

Scholars of human resources development (HRD) and related fields should stay abreast of mixed methods research developments to advance their scholarship. In support this idea, two companion works published in Human Resources Development Review (Hitchcock & Newman, 2013; Newman & Hitchcock, 2011) were offered to help HRD scholars embrace the concept of mixed methods research. It is now approaching 10 years since the second of these two articles was published and, since then, there have been important mixed methods research updates that can facilitate HRD inquiry. This article therefore contributes to Human Resources Development Review’s Instructor’s Corner by reviewing: (a) updates in paradigmatic thinking that support the use of mixed methods, (b) new approaches to integration, and (c) legitimation approaches that offer a validity framework for understanding mixed methods design quality. These three descriptions include discussion around how they might be applied in HRD research.

运用混合方法研究进行人力资源开发调查:最新进展

人力资源开发及相关领域的学者应了解混合方法研究的发展，以提高他们的学术水平。为了支持这一观点，发表在《人力资源开发评论》上的两篇配套著作（Hitchcock&Newman，2013；Newman&Hitchcock，2011）被提供来帮助人力资源开发学者接受混合方法研究的概念。这两篇文章中的第二篇发表至今已近10年，从那时起，出现了重要的混合方法研究更新，可以促进人力资源开发调查。因此，本文通过回顾：（a）支持使用混合方法的范式思维的更新，（b）集成的新方法，以及（c）为理解混合方法设计质量提供有效框架的合法化方法，为人力资源开发评论的讲师角做出了贡献。这三个描述包括关于如何将其应用于人力资源开发研究的讨论。

期刊介绍： As described elsewhere, Human Resource Development Review is a theory development journal for scholars of human resource development and related disciplines. Human Resource Development Review publishes articles that make theoretical contributions on theory development, foundations of HRD, theory building methods, and integrative reviews of the relevant literature. Papers whose central focus is empirical findings, including empirical method and design are not considered for publication in Human Resource Development Review. This journal encourages submissions that provide new theoretical insights to advance our understanding of human resource development and related disciplines. Such papers may include syntheses of existing bodies of theory, new substantive theories, exploratory conceptual models, taxonomies and typology developed as foundations for theory, treatises in formal theory construction, papers on the history of theory, critique of theory that includes alternative research propositions, metatheory, and integrative literature reviews with strong theoretical implications. Papers addressing foundations of HRD might address philosophies of HRD, historical foundations, definitions of the field, conceptual organization of the field, and ethical foundations. Human Resource Development Review takes a multi-paradigm view of theory building so submissions from different paradigms are encouraged.
