ABSTRACT
Scholars introduce modern mixed methods research (MMR) and its application in public health research in Taiwan. Specifically, they showcase a multi-phased Taiwan cervical cancer screening mixed methods study using visual diagrams to communicate complex design procedures. While some previous researchers have incorporated quantitative and qualitative data in research, here we hope to provide significant clarity to guide those new to the MMR field. We have structured the article in the following way. First, we provide a brief overview of MMR. Second, we illustrate the compelling need for MMR from a public health perspective using cancer screenings as an example. Third, we introduce the Taiwan cervical cancer screening program as an exemplar of MMR application and the utility of visual diagrams. Study methodology can be applied to international researchers and scholars from interdisciplinary fields beyond public health.
