2024 APS Annual Convention

Triangulating Mixed Methods to Support Causal Inference and Translation in Developmental Psychology

Sunday, May 26, 2024 · San Francisco, CA

Oral · Methodology

No single method in Developmental Psychology can support causal inference or translation by itself. In this symposium we discuss approaches such as RCTs, statistical modelling and natural experiments, qualitative interviewing and Patient and Public Involvement and explore how triangulation across approaches can be used to support causal inference and translation.
