Multiple Research Approaches

The International Journal of Multiple Research Approaches (ISSN 1834-0806) is an international peer-reviewed journal for timely publication of research, scholarship, educational, researcher and practitioner perspectives on multiple, hybrid (outcome of unusual blending), synergistic (combined effect), integrated and cultural research approaches - be these indigenous, institutional, or community based - and including the Asian, Pacific, Latin American and African regions as well as Europe and North America. The focus is on combining or synergising various theoretical frame-works, methodologies and methods most appropriate for addressing research questions.

In one forum, the International Journal of Multiple Research Approaches (ISSN 1834-0806) covers:

Multiple, hybrid, synergistic, integrated, cultural, mixed qualitative and quantitative empirical research approaches.
Theoretical and conceptual articles on methodological and ethical dilemmas and advances
Critical perspectives and proposals for the management of technical issues (eg, software development and data handling)
Discussion of the philosophical issues, practical problems and benefits associated with multiple, hybrid, synergistic, integrated and cultural approaches including theoretical frameworks, methodologies, data collection, management and analysis methods and the different forms of transformation and representation
Literature reviews - including those from theses - on methodological trends/advances
Articles on methodology education, technologies and learning techniques
Practitioner perspectives, experiences from the field and case applications of methodologies and results

Article formats include, but are not restricted to, traditional academic research articles, research design, case applications, literature reviews, approaches to teaching and learning, software advances and constraints, practitioner perspectives and advice for novice researchers. Original articles informing multiple and mixed methodological research and practice are encouraged from a range of disciplines - including all health sciences, social sciences, anthropology, criminology, Indigenous and cultural studies, business studies, development studies, psychology, education, political science, organisational science, geography and history, the arts - and other related disciplines.
