research paradigm that encourages the combined use of qualitative and quantitative research elements to answer complex questions (Heyvaert and all 2011)paradigme de recherche qui encourage l'utilisation combinée d'éléments de recherche qualitative et quantitative pour répondre aux questions complexes (Heyvaert et all 2011)Q-Code conceptual content
Mixed study ; As a method, it focuses on collecting, analyzing, and mixing both quantitative and qualitative data in a single study or series of studies. Its central premise is that the use of quantitative and qualitative approaches in combination provides a better understanding of research problems than either approach alone (Creswell & Clark 2007)The essential goal of mixed methods research is to tackle a given research question from any relevant angle, making use where appropriate of previous research and/or more than one type of investigative perspective. Sometimes referred to as mixed methodology, multiple methodology or multi-methodology research, mixed methods research offers you the best of both worlds: the in-depth, contextualized, and natural but more time-consuming insights of qualitative research coupled with the more-efficient but less rich or compelling predictive power of quantitative research.(Dedoose)Bibliographic link
