Mixed Methods Research
A research approach that combines quantitative and qualitative forms of research for a comprehensive understanding.
Quantitative Research
Research designs often used to test theory, examine the status of variables, and investigate differences among groups.
Qualitative Research
Research designs used to gain in-depth understanding of complex phenomena and meanings of experiences.
Integration
The process of combining quantitative and qualitative data to enhance research findings.
Triangulation
The use of multiple methods or data sources to develop a comprehensive understanding of a research problem.
Concurrent Design
A mixed methods research design where quantitative and qualitative data are collected at the same time.
Sequential Design
A mixed methods research design that involves two distinct phases, where one type of data informs the next.
Data Transformation
Converting one form of data into another, such as qualitizing numerical data or quantizing qualitative data.
Philosophical Worldview
Researchers' underlying beliefs that shape their approach to research and determine which methods they employ.
Implementation Sequence
The decision on the timing between the quantitative and qualitative methods in mixed methods research.

What does quantitative research primarily focus on?
Testing theories, examining variables, and investigating differences among groups.
What is an example of data transformation in mixed methods research?
Qualitizing numerical data to analyze it qualitatively.
Define triangulation in research methods.
The use of multiple methods or data sources to obtain a comprehensive understanding of a research problem.
What is a key aspect of concurrent design in mixed methods research?
Collecting quantitative and qualitative data simultaneously.
What is meant by sequential design in mixed methods research?
A design that involves two distinct phases where one type of data informs the next.
Why is it important to consider philosophical worldview in research?
It shapes researchers' beliefs and informs the methods they choose.
What does 'integration' refer to in mixed methods research?
The process of combining quantitative and qualitative data to enrich research findings.
How does implementation sequence affect mixed methods research?
It determines the timing and order of applying quantitative and qualitative methods.
