Mixed methodology for health-related research

【Course Introduction课程介绍】

This course is designed for undergraduate, master and PhD students, focusing on the application of mixed research methods (qualitative and quantitative) in health-related studies, covering the principles, practical applications and problem-solving approach of common issues of each method. Through short-term intensive teaching and learning, this course aims to help students to build up data awareness and scientific research ability, to cultivate students' ability to understand and solve health-related problems from a multidisciplinary perspective.

Through a 16-hour teaching including both theory and practice, students will learn how to understand data, apply appropriate research methods, and select the correct statistical analysis techniques to handle corresponding data(such as when and how to use case studies or interview methods in different scenarios, and how to code and analyze qualitative data).  For quantitative data, they will learn how to use specific statistical analysis and corresponding software (such as Stata, Mplus, etc.) for data process and in-depth analysis, such as the application of structural equation models (SEM), with a particular focus on improving the longitudinal data analysis skills, which aligns with the demands of current research direction in the health field.

本课程面向本科生及硕博研究生，聚焦于健康相关研究中定性和定量相结合研究方法的应用，涵盖各方法的原理、具体应用实践和常见问题的处理，通过集中授课学习，旨在提升学生的数据认识和科研能力，培养学生从多学科视角理解和解决健康相关问题。

通过16学时的理论和实践结合课程，带领同学们学习如何理解数据，如何应用适宜的研究方法并选择正确的统计分析方法处理对应的数据类型（如何种场景应用案例研究或者访谈研究方法以及如何对于定性数据进行编码和分析）；对定量数据如何应用具体的统计分析软件（如Stata、Mplus软件等）进行数据的处理和深度分析，如结构方程模型（Structural Equation Modeling，SEM）的应用，尤其是纵向数据分析技能的提升，契合当今健康领域研究的迫切需求。
