Interim Guidance

JBI Methodology Groups are continuously working to improve, update and further the science of JBI Evidence Syntheses. JBI Methodology chapters are updated when there have been significant changes to a methodology, as determined by the JBI Scientific Committee. Interim guidance for steps, sections or stages of a review methodology is often provided via publications ahead of formal chapter updates. Please see below for relevant interim guidance:

Five common pitfalls in mixed methods systematic reviews: lessons learned

Lizarondo, L et al 2022

Common pitfalls in conducting a mixed methods systematic review relate to the justification for undertaking a mixed methods approach to the systematic review, mismatch between the review questions and the synthesis/integration approach used, inadvertent or deliberate exclusion of mixed methods primary research in the review, lack of clarity about data transformation, and the lack of integration of the quantitative and qualitative components of the review.

Methodological guidance for the conduct of mixed methods systematic reviews

Stern, C et al 2020

This paper outlines the updated methodological approach for conducting a JBI mixed methods systematic review with a focus on data synthesis; specifically, methods related to how data are combined and the overall integration of the quantitative and qualitative evidence.
