项目摘要

During the past two decades mixed methods and multi method research (MMMR) has become an established empirical approach within a broad spectrum of social science disciplines. The integration of quantitative and qualitative methods is a growing research area and MMMR-Designs are increasingly acknowledged as a powerful strategy alongside traditional mono-method approaches. However, this positive development has been accompanied by several issues.Firstly, the popularization of MMMR has led to a considerable expansion of methodological concepts and terminologies. The resulting plethora of conceptualizations remains yet to be integrated into a broadly applicable methodological framework. In its current state, the methodological literature on MMMR is - at least in some instances - prone to cause confusion rather than clarity, e.g. in the areas of validation criteria or data analysis strategies.Secondly, methodological dialog is sometimes hindered by disciplinary boundaries, since MMM-researchers tend to remain grouped into disciplines or research fields, e.g. in educational science, psychology, or comparative political science.The proposed scientific network will take on these methodological issues by providing an infrastructure for problem-centered, interdisciplinary discussion. At the same time, it aims to intensify the exchange between the German-speaking and international methods-communities. The following topics will be emphasized:(1) How can the multiplicity of current MMMR-conceptualizations and terminologies be integrated more fully without compromising diversity?(2) What are different approaches towards causal analysis in MMMR and what are possible avenues towards a more productive dialog between them? (3) What are current issues and developments with regard to MMMR sampling and data collection? (4) What are current problems and potentials for innovation in MMMR data analysis?(5) What are promising avenues towards practical, comprehensive quality criteria and best-practice-guidelines for MMMR?(6) What are typical barriers for communicating MMMR-results and teaching MMMR-skills and what are possible ways to reduce them? These questions will be addressed in six consecutive workshop meetings. During each meeting network-members will present papers on the respective topics which will be commented on by international expert guests. Public lectures by the invited experts will complement the program. Documentation and dissemination of workshop-results will be provided through the network website as well as through a concluding international conference organized by the network-team. Key results from the network meetings will be published in an internationally visible article collection.

在过去的二十年中，混合方法和多方法研究（MMMR）已成为广泛的社会科学学科中既定的实证方法。定量和定性方法的整合是一个不断发展的研究领域，MMMR 设计越来越被认为是与传统单一方法并驾齐驱的强大策略。然而，这种积极的发展也伴随着一些问题。首先，MMMR的普及导致了方法论概念和术语的相当大的扩展。由此产生的大量概念仍有待整合到广泛适用的方法论框架中。在目前的状态下，MMMR 的方法论文献——至少在某些情况下——容易造成混乱而不是清晰，例如其次，方法论对话有时会受到学科界限的阻碍，因为 MMM 研究人员倾向于按学科或研究领域进行分组，例如：拟议的科学网络将通过为以问题为中心的跨学科讨论提供基础设施来解决这些方法论问题。同时，它的目的是加强德语和国际方法界之间的交流。将强调以下主题：（1）如何在不影响多样性的情况下更充分地整合当前 MMMR 概念和术语的多样性？（2）MMMR 中因果分析的不同方法是什么？它们之间进行更富有成效的对话的可能途径是什么？ (3) MMMR 采样和数据收集目前存在哪些问题和进展？ (4) MMMR 数据分析当前存在的问题和创新潜力是什么？(5) 实现 MMMR 实用、全面的质量标准和最佳实践指南的有希望的途径是什么？(6) 沟通 MMMR 结果和教授 MMMR 技能的典型障碍是什么？减少这些障碍的可能方法是什么？这些问题将在连续六次研讨会会议上得到解决。在每次会议期间，网络成员将就各自的主题发表论文，并由国际专家嘉宾进行评论。受邀专家的公开讲座将补充该计划。研讨会结果的记录和传播将通过网络网站以及网络团队组织的国际总结会议提供。网络会议的主要结果将发布在国际可见的文章集中。
