to extract and analyse data from the studies that are included in the review
Descriptive Review
Review of Literature
Systematic Review -- Correct Answer ✔✔ systematic review
When starting a systematic review, it is important to establish ___ chart
PIKOT
PICOT -- Correct Answer ✔✔ Picot
Triangulation model where survey and open ended survey is used
Convergence
Data Transformation
Data Validating Qual Data
multilevel -- Correct Answer ✔✔ Data Validating Qual Data
Mixed method design used w when a researcher wants to directly compare and

quantitative results with qualitative data.
Triangulation
Embedded
Explanatory sequential
,Exploratory -- Correct Answer ✔✔ triangulation
Triangulation model where the qual is transformed into quan
Convergence
Data Transformation
Data Validating Qual Data
multilevel -- Correct Answer ✔✔ Data Transformation
Triangulation model where quan and qual data meet
Convergence
Data Transformation
Data Validating Qual Data
multilevel -- Correct Answer ✔✔ convergence
Triangulation model where it consists of several phases of quan and qual data collection
and analysis
Convergence
Data Transformation
Data Validating Qual Data
multilevel -- Correct Answer ✔✔ multilevel
a mixed methods design in which one data set provides a supportive, secondary role in a
study based primarily on the other data type
Triangulation
Embedded
Explanatory sequential
Exploratory -- Correct Answer ✔✔ embedded
a two-phase mixed methods design. The overall purpose of this design is that qualitative
data helps explain or build upon initial quantitative results.
Triangulation
, Embedded
Explanatory sequential
Exploratory -- Correct Answer ✔✔ explanatory
a two-phase mixed methods design that the results of the first method (qualitative) can
help develop or inform the second method.
Triangulation
