S在研究中的知识共享被定义为两个或两个以上的理论、数据源、方法或研究者在研究一个单一现象时的组合(丹增,1970)。尽管这个定义看起来很简单,但仔细观察就会发现,“组合”这个词可以有很多种解释。特殊的解释可能会给试图进行三角测量的搜索者和质疑是否进行了三角测量的研究消费者带来困难。缺乏实施三角测量的特异性和循序渐进的程序值得注意。本文的目的是为Denzin(1989)所描述的三角剖分类型提供可操作的定义,以努力使三角剖分更清晰,从而更吸引更多的护士调查人员。
S LS kkkk in research has been defined as the combination of two or more theories, data sources, methods, or investigators in the study of a single phenomenon (Denzin, 1970). Although this definition is seemingly straightforward, closer scrutiny reveals that the word “combination” can be interpreted in many ways. Idiosyncratic interpreta-tions could lead to difficulties for re-searchers attempting to triangulate and for research consumers questioning whether or not triangulation took place. The lack of specificity and step-by-step procedures for implementing triangulation merits attention. The purpose of this paper is to present operational definitions for the types of triangulation described by Denzin (1989) in an effort to make triangulation clearer and thus more appealing to larger numbers of nurse investigators.
