健康学科中在方法上更具包容性的新要求引发了人们对混合研究综合，即定性与定量研究结果整合的日益增长的兴趣。定性元总结是一种以定量为导向的定性研究结果的汇总，最初是为适应定性调查的独特特征而开发的。然而，这些研究结果在形式和产生方式上与研究人员除了双变量和多变量分析结果之外经常呈现的描述性结果相似。定性元总结包括研究结果的提取、分组和格式化，以及频率和强度效应量的计算，可用于进行混合研究综合以及对报告和研究结果之间的关系进行事后分析。（c）2007威利期刊公司
The new imperative in the health disciplines to be more methodologically inclusive has generated a growing interest in mixed research synthesis, or the integration of qualitative and quantitative research findings. Qualitative metasummary is a quantitatively oriented aggregation of qualitative findings originally developed to accommodate the distinctive features of qualitative surveys. Yet these findings are similar in form and mode of production to the descriptive findings researchers often Present in addition to the results of bivariate and multivariable analyses. Qualitative metasummary, which includes the extraction, grouping, and formatting of findings, and the calculation of frequency and intensity effect sizes, can be used to produce mixed research syntheses and to conduct a posteriori analyses of the relationship between reports and findings.
