The stats-in-action mini-symposia on methods involving statistics (including mixed methods) are designed to showcase the variety of ways in which Griffith researchers and friends have put statistics to good use, in practice, to support an evidence-based approach to research.
Interviewing methods can produce qualitative and quantitative data, particularly when closed and open-ended questions are used during an interview. Further, using mixed method approaches to analyse interview data may involve innovative analytic techniques. For example, quantifying (e.g. counting themes) in qualitative data. This symposium is open to all who have integrated interviewing into a mixed methods research project, to share their methodological approach and/or analysis.
Agenda
10.05 am - Implementation of elite para-sports policies: How inter-dependencies and organizational learnings shape processes of policy implementation.
Speaker: Carlos Zardini
The literature has not explored how inter‐organizational dependencies and organizational learning have shaped internal processes of policy implementation of elite para‐sports national organizations.
10.25 am - Interviewing Culturally Diverse Participants in an Ethnographic Approach to Sociological research
Speaker: Dr Toni McCallum
As a new mum everything I read about motherhood was written by middle‐class White women. I wanted to know where the other, diverse voices on mothering were. So I set out to find them.
10.45 am - The Lived Experience of East Asian International Students as a Foreign Accented Speaker in Australian Higher Education: A Case Study of Challenges and Coping Strategies
Speaker: EunJae Park
Higher education research on second language (L2) international students has revealed that varieties of English spoken by these students with a foreign accent can result in communication barriers, triggering stereotyping and discrimination by host nationals. Few studies, however, specifically investigated how accents play out in their life experience during their study journey at a foreign institution.
10.55 am - Interpretivism & Phenomenology and IPA: methodology versus method
Speaker: Dr Judy Rose
This paper is "mixed‐in" with the talk by Eun‐Jae Park, and will contrast two different mixed methods

12.00 pm - Illegal dumping of household waste in Beerburrum forest: reinterpreting why people dump to where they dump via elicitation of expert knowledge via interviews.
