Program Description: In contrast to commonly used quantitative research designs, this eCast will present the basic structures and methods of qualitative and mixed methods research designs for consideration in transfusion medicine research. Speakers will present compelling arguments for transfusionists to consider using these designs and their associated methodologies to approach critical questions in transfusion medicine that can only be adequately answered using these methods. Speakers will describe the basic structures of the major qualitative and mixed methods designs as well as the basics of their data collection and analysis methods and the strengths and weaknesses of the selected designs. Examples of qualitative and mixed methods studies will be presented throughout to illustrate important content. Attendees of the program will gain a deeper appreciation of basic qualitative and mixed methods designs and be encouraged to consider applying them to answer their own future research questions. (The eCast will draw from Research Design for Transfusion Medicine, a forthcoming book from AABB Press).
