Evidence-Based Practice / Unit 7   EBP 0950 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Convergent Parallel

Captions available

The idea

In a convergent parallel design the strands are conducted alongside each other and integrated afterwards.

In practice

A survey and an interview study run at the same time, then brought together.

Where people slip

Integration is the step that makes it mixed methods. Two parallel studies reported side by side have not been integrated.
