  • Connecting "quantity" and "quality" to deeply understand phenomena: The forefront of mixed methods research and e-learning development
  • Professor Naoko Kakai
  • Mixed methods research is an approach that utilizes both qualitative and quantitative data to comprehensively elucidate complex phenomena. Professor Naoko Kakai, who has long researched this method, has developed e-learning for nursing researchers. There are high expectations for the widespread adoption of this research method, which allows researchers to understand both quantitative (numerical) data that shows "what is effective" in nursing practice and qualitative data that shows "the context of treatment and nursing."
