Development of Prototype Administration on Structural Equation Modeling Research Using Multiphase Mixed Methods Research Approach for Graduate Students of Buddhist University

Abstract

The objectives of this research are 1) to develop the structural equation model research management process using a mixed methods research methodology paradigm, multi- phase method for doctoral students at Buddhist universities; 2) to experiment with the structural equation model research management process with research methodology paradigm of mixed methods, multi- phase method for doctoral students of monastic universities, and 3) to create and evaluate a prototype of research administration, structural equation model, with a paradigm of research methodology of mixed methods, multi- phase method for doctoral students. of the Sangha University. This research is action research (Action Research) according to the PAOR process, consisting of planning (Plan), taking action ( Act) , observing ( Observe) and reflecting ( Reflect) . The researcher has designed the research according to the PAOR research cycle. The research results are summarized. as follows: 1. Results of the development of the structural equation model research management process using a multi- phase mixed methods research methodology paradigm for doctoral students at Buddhist universities. It can be concluded that it is divided into 7 steps, called the SEM model research design methodology. Multi- phase mixed methods research consists of Step 1: Develop the research conceptual framework into a causal model ( SEM) ; Step 2: Design with Multi- phase Mixed Methods Research ( MMMR) ; Step 3: Examine variables according to the research conceptual framework as well. Qualitative research and summarize it as a foundation theory ( GTM) ; Step 4: Confirm the causal model with quantitative research ( Model); Step 5: Use the causal model to design creative activities with action research ( PAOR); Step 6: Reflect on the results. Putting the model to good use ( Model Utilization); and step 7, creating innovation from the results of trying out the model ( innovation). 2. The results of reflection on learning about the research management process of structural equation models using the multi- phase mixed methods research method paradigm for doctoral students at Buddhist universities found that they have knowledge and understanding about creating a conceptual framework in Research into causal models. Learning the variables of Structural Equation Model research is called latent variables and observed variables. Passed variable has the ability to analyze data with advanced SEM statistics and can integrate Buddhist principles as variables within the model including the findings of the transmitted variables that can be further developed to design activities to develop target groups in real places to see empirical results. 3. Results of the evaluation of the prototype of research administration, structural equation model, with a multi- phase mixed method research methodology paradigm for doctoral students of monastic universities. From evaluating the quality of the research report, Structural Equation Model with mixed methods research, which represents a prototype of research management, Structural Equation Model with research methodological paradigm, mixed methods, multiphase method for undergraduate students, Ph.D. of the Saṅgha university, it can be concluded that the quality level is generally, at a very high level. There are 3 models with the highest quality level: the model for the effectiveness of scout administration in basic educational institutions; Buddhist learning ecosystem model and the model of effectiveness of innovative Buddhist methods for teaching and learning Thai traditional medicine, followed by the model of Buddhist innovation based on the new way of promoting healthy development. and a causal model of Buddhist leadership characteristics in an innovative society for educational institutions.
