This workshop is suitable for specialist and non-specialist researchers, reviewers, clinicians, commissioners and policy makers. There is an increasing awareness of the importance of combining and synthesising research findings from both qualitative and quantitative studies. This is because the questions that policy makers and practitioners ask go beyond just wanting to know ‘what works’ to needing to understand ‘why’, ‘for whom’, ‘how’ and ‘when’.
Individual presentations will cover the leading approaches to combining qualitative and quantitative evidence. Examples from reviews undertaken will be presented and there will be the opportunity to discuss how to conduct mixed method evidence synthesis in small groups with experts in the area.
