Theoretical versus pragmatic design in qualitative research [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
For many years, discussions of the relative merits of generic and theoretical approaches to qualitative research have divided researchers while overshadowing the need to focus on addressing clinical questions.

Research Design

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Surgery, 2012
The development of a good research design permits us to obtain the best research data possible. From the experimental question to the research hypothesis and data collection variables, we can begin to consider the optimal research design. Details pertaining to the selection of the research design are considered within and very much in relation with the

The unpredictably eruptive dynamics of spruce budworm populations in eastern Canada

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
We examine historical population data for spruce budworm from several locations through the period 1930–1997, and use density‐dependent recruitment curves to test whether the pattern of population growth over time is more consistent with Royama's (1984; Ecological Monographs 54:429–462) linear R(t) model of harmonic oscillation at Green River New ...

General aspects of the use of mixed methods for health research

open access: yesMedwave, 2023
Traditionally, research has been divided according to its methodology into quantitative and qualitative. Mixed research methodology combines both methods and has established itself as a third approach, allowing to comprehensively address high-complexity ...

How to Construct a Mixed Methods Research Design

open access: yesKZfSS Kölner Zeitschrift für Soziologie und Sozialpsychologie, 2017
This article provides researchers with knowledge of how to design a high quality mixed methods research study. To design a mixed study, researchers must understand and carefully consider each of the dimensions of mixed methods design, and always keep an ...

Network topology drives population temporal variability in experimental habitat networks

open access: yesPopulation Ecology, EarlyView.
Habitat patches connected by dispersal pathways form habitat networks. We explored how network topology affects population outcomes in laboratory experiments using a model species (Daphnia carinata). Central habitat nodes in complex lattice networks exhibited lower temporal variability in population sizes, suggesting they support more stable ...

Design Science Research Process: A Model for Producing and Presenting Information Systems Research [PDF]

open access: yesin the Proceedings of the First International Conference on Design Science Research in Information Systems and Technology, pp. 83-16. 2006, Claremont, California, USA, 2020
The authors design and demonstrate a process for carrying out design science (DS) research in information systems and demonstrate use of the process to conduct research in two case studies. Several IS researchers have pioneered the acceptance of DS research in IS, but in the last 15 years little DS research has been done within the discipline. The lack

Deep Generative Design: Integration of Topology Optimization and Generative Models [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mechanical Design, 141(11), 111405, 2019
Deep learning has recently been applied to various research areas of design optimization. This study presents the need and effectiveness of adopting deep learning for generative design (or design exploration) research area. This work proposes an artificial intelligent (AI)-based design automation framework that is capable of generating numerous design ...
