Abstract

This October 2022 issue of the Journal of Mixed Methods Research (JMMR) includes an editorial, a commentary and rebuttal, four articles, and a media review. In the editorial, Fetters (2022) has articulated multiple reasons for adopting naming conventions in the field of mixed methods research. He has focused on mixed methods designs and on naming convention to reflect designs that move beyond core mixed methods designs into combinations with different levels or aspects of research, for example, philosophical, paradigmatic, theoretical, analytical, and methodological. Specifically, Fetters has proposed a taxonomy inspired by the biological sciences that can include levels beyond the methods for a host of designs referred to by such names as advanced designs, intersected designs, scaffolded designs, and embedded designs. He has provided recommendations for authors submitting to JMMR, and next steps for the mixed methods community. Next, this issue includes a commentary by Maxwell (2022) and a rebuttal by Morgan (2022), following an interesting conversation thread in the journal about the use of the term “triangulation” in mixed methods research and distinction from the aspects of integrating quantitative and qualitative methods (Fetters & Molina-Azorin, 2017, 2019; Hammersley, 2018; Maxwell, 2019; Morgan, 2018, 2019a, 2019b; Sandelowski, 2018). Regarding the four articles published in this October 2022 issue, in the first article, Doran et al. (2022), with affiliations in sociology, nursing, social work, and social statistics, examined the use of narrative methodology with mixed methods research. The authors define narrative mixed methods research as a mixed methods approach that is shaped by stories about the phenomenon under investigation (p. 3). They provided an example from studying the value and impact of social support on the treatment and quality of life of older people with cancer. The authors conducted an

本期：叙事混合方法研究、视觉方法和照片、联合显示编码和混合方法研究中的随机对照试验

2022年10月的《混合方法研究杂志》(JMMR)包括一篇社论、一篇评论和反驳、四篇文章和一篇媒体评论。在社论中，Fetters(2022)阐述了在混合方法研究领域采用命名惯例的多种原因。他专注于混合方法设计和命名惯例，以反映设计超越核心混合方法设计，进入不同层次或研究方面的组合，例如哲学，范例，理论，分析和方法论。具体来说，Fetters提出了一种受生物科学启发的分类法，该分类法可以包括高级设计、交叉设计、支架设计和嵌入式设计等一系列设计方法之外的层次。他为提交给JMMR的作者提供了建议，并为混合方法社区提供了下一步的步骤。接下来，这一期包括Maxwell(2022)的评论和Morgan(2022)的反驳，在期刊上关于在混合方法研究中使用“三角测量”一词以及从整合定量和定性方法方面进行区分的有趣对话之后(Fetters & Molina-Azorin, 2017,2019;Hammersley, 2018;麦克斯韦尔,2019;Morgan, 2018,2019a, 2019b;Sandelowski, 2018)。关于发表在2022年10月号上的四篇文章，在第一篇文章中，Doran等人(2022)，隶属于社会学，护理学，社会工作和社会统计学，通过混合方法研究考察了叙事方法的使用。作者将叙事混合方法研究定义为一种混合方法方法，这种方法是由关于被调查现象的故事形成的(第3页)。他们提供了一个研究社会支持对老年癌症患者的治疗和生活质量的价值和影响的例子。作者进行了一项

期刊介绍： The Journal of Mixed Methods Research serves as a premiere outlet for ground-breaking and seminal work in the field of mixed methods research. Of primary importance will be building an international and multidisciplinary community of mixed methods researchers. The journal''s scope includes exploring a global terminology and nomenclature for mixed methods research, delineating where mixed methods research may be used most effectively, creating the paradigmatic and philosophical foundations for mixed methods research, illuminating design and procedure issues, and determining the logistics of conducting mixed methods research. JMMR invites articles from a wide variety of international perspectives, including academics and practitioners from psychology, sociology, education, evaluation, health sciences, geography, communication, management, family studies, marketing, social work, and other related disciplines across the social, behavioral, and human sciences.
