Resumo
A pesquisa de métodos mistos engloba a associação entre procedimentos de coleta, análise e combinação de técnicas quantitativas e qualitativas. Nos últimos anos ocorreu um aumento vertiginoso no uso da abordagem mista, sobretudo na literatura internacional. Este ensaio incide sobre o uso do método misto na pesquisa em educação, no Brasil, com fundamento na seguinte questão norteadora: “em que medida a abordagem mista de pesquisa está inserida, no Brasil, em programas de pós-graduação da área de educação (PPGEs), considerados de desempenho equivalente a padrões internacionais de excelência?”. Desenvolveu-se, portanto, pesquisa documental, na qual foram mapeadas e analisadas teses de um programa de pós-graduação, nota sete, de acordo com avaliação da Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES), no período de 2013 a 2018. Os estudos de John Creswell forneceram a base teórica e os critérios de análise das teses selecionadas. As buscas foram realizadas na Plataforma Sucupira e, dentre as 104 teses identificadas como pertencentes ao PPGE em foco, no referido período, 11 (10,6%) foram identificadas como concernentes ao contexto das investigações do tipo mistas. Considera-se que há, em maior e menor grau, a percepção do uso potencial de um projeto de método misto nas teses analisadas, com evolução temporal na melhoria dessa percepção, pois teses mais recentes apontam justificativas mais claras para a integração quali-quantitativa. Identificou-se também evolução teórica e metodológica; todavia, há necessidade de os pesquisadores do referido programa buscarem referências mais atuais no tocante aos estudos do tipo misto.
Mixed methods research embraces the association of procedures to collect and analyze data as well as the combination of quantitative and qualitative techniques. In the past years there has been an increase in the use of mixed methods, especially in the international literature. This article focuses on the use of mixed methods to education research in Brazil. The following question guides the investigation: “to what extent the mixed methods approach is present in Brazilian Postgraduate Programs in Education whose academic performance matches the international standards of excellence?”. A documentary research was conducted to map and analyze the theses of a postgraduate program that reached the highest score according to Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES) from 2013 to 2018. The studies of John Creswell provided our theoretical basis and the analysis criteria for the selected theses. The search conducted on the Sucupira Platform found that 11 of 104 theses (10.6%) from the appointed Postgraduate Program in Education make use of mixed methods. Thus, it was verified, to greater and lesser degrees, the perception of the potential use of mixed methods in the theses, which improves over time as more recent theses present clearer justifications for integrating qualitative and quantitative techniques. In addition, both theoretical and methodological developments were verified, however, researchers in the Postgraduate Program have yet to employ more up to date references regarding mixed methods research.
