- Abstract
- Research in nursing is growing rapidly, and there is increased use of qualitative and mixed methods approaches to investigations. However, frequently researchers’ adopt a research approach with little understanding of the philosophical assumptions underpinning their choice. Using a framework of research intent, this paper aims to identify the different philosophical assumptions associated with different research intents and therefore provide a foundation for more informed decision making in selection of methodologies.
