Leverage points to improve smoking cessation treatment in a large tertiary care hospital: a systems-based mixed methods study by Alex T Ramsey, Donna Prentice, Ellis Ballard, Li-Shiun Chen, Laura J Bierut

“…Objectives To generate system insights on patient and provider levers and strategies that must be activated to improve hospital-based smoking cessation treatment.Design Mixed methods study including a series of in-depth group model building sessions, which informed the design of an online survey completed by healthcare providers and a structured interview protocol administered at the bedside to patients who smoke.Setting Large, tertiary care hospital in the Midwestern United States.Participants Group model building: 28 healthcare providers and 22 previously-hospitalised patients; Online survey: 308 healthcare providers; Bedside interviews: 205 hospitalised patients.Primary and secondary outcome measures Hypothesis-generating, participatory qualitative methods informed the examination of the following quantitative outcomes: patient interest versus provider perception of patient interest in smoking cessation and treatment; patient-reported receipt versus provider-reported offering of inpatient smoking cessation interventions; and priority ratings of importance and feasibility of strategies to improve treatment.Results System insights included patients frequently leaving the floor to smoke, which created major workflow disruption. …”

Kafka’s Literary Style: A Mixed-Method Approach by Carsten Strathausen, Wenyi Shang, Andrei Kazakov

“…In this essay, we examine how the polyvalence of meaning in Kafka’s texts is engineered both semantically (on the narrative level) and syntactically (on the linguistic level), and we ask whether a computational approach can shed new light on the long-standing debate about the major characteristics of Kafka’s literary style. A mixed-method approach means that we seek out points of connection that interlink traditional humanist (i.e., interpretative) and computational (i.e., quantitative) methods of investigation. …”
