心理学研究中质化与量化两种取向的对立与整合

The Opposition and Integration of Qualitative and Quantitative Approaches to Psychological Research

科学心理学建立以来,心理学进入量化研究时代。量化研究为心理学带来了飞速的 发展与丰硕的成果。然而,近几十年来,心理研究的质化取向日渐兴起,有关量化研究与质化研究的 讨论日益引起重视。混合方法研究试图超越两者的纷争,克服单独使用某种研究方法的局限,整合两 种研究取向,为复杂心理现象的研究提供更为丰富的研究思路。

Psychology has been a highly quantitative field since its conception as a science.Quantitative research has brought rapid development and fruitful results to psychology.However,in the last decades,the qualitative approach in psychology was on the rise,and the discussion about quantitative and qualitative research has been increasingly aroused.The Mixed Methods Research seeks to transcend the conflict between quantitative and qualitative approaches,overcome the limitations of using one research method alone,integrate the two approaches,and provide more research ideas for the study of complex psychological phenomena.
