In diesem Editorial stellen wir den FQS-Schwerpunkt "Mixed Methods und multimethodische Forschung in den Sozialwissenschaften: Anwendungen in der gegenwärtigen Forschungslandschaft und künftige Entwicklungen" vor, indem wir zunächst Wandel und Kontinuitäten in diesem Forschungsfeld seit dem Erscheinen von FQS 2(1) "Qualitative und Quantitative Forschung: Übereinstimmungen und Divergenzen" (SCHREIER & FIELDING, 2001) betrachten. Anschließend geben wir einen kurzen historischen Überblick über die Entwicklung methodenintegrativer Forschungsansätze in den letzten 20 Jahren und gelangen so zu einer Darstellung des Status quo. Dabei heben wir die Fortschritte hervor, die Anwender*innen von Mixed Methods und multimethodischer Forschung (MMMF) sowie -Methodolog*innen in verschiedenen Forschungsgebieten erzielt haben. Wir greifen allerdings auch einige der ungelösten Probleme in diesem Feld auf, darunter die wachsende interne Fragmentierung des MMMF-Diskurses sowie die zunehmende Distanz zwischen MMMF-Methodologie und der empirischen Forschungspraxis. Wir schließen mit einer kurzen Vorstellung der 13 hier versammelten Beiträge.... view less

In this editorial, we introduce the FQS special issue "Mixed Methods and Multimethod Social Research - Current Applications and Future Directions" by firstly considering changes and continuities in the field since the publication of FQS 2(1) on "Qualitative and Quantitative Research: Conjunctions and Divergences" (SCHREIER & FIELDING, 2001). We then provide a brief overview of the historical development of mixed research approaches over the past 20 years so as to arrive at a concise description of the status quo. We highlight some of the advances made by researchers applying integrative designs in multiple research areas, as well as methodologists analyzing the conceptual groundwork of mixed methods and multimethod research (MMMR). However, we also point out some of the critical issues remaining to be resolved, including the increasing internal fragmentation of the MMMR discourse and a seemingly growing gap between MMMR methodology and empirical research practice. We conclude by introducing the 13 contributions assembled in this volume.... view less
