Zusammenfassung	Equal-weight intervention mixed methods is a research design in which both quantitative and qualitative strands are assigned equal priority and are embedded within or alongside an intervention, program, or experiment. The design evaluates not only whether an intervention works (QUAN outcomes) but also how and why it works or fails (QUAL processes), with neither strand treated as secondary. It is particularly suited to program evaluation, clinical trials with process components, and educational or social interventions.	Transformative mixed methods design embeds a social-justice or advocacy theoretical framework — such as feminism, critical race theory, disability studies, or indigenous worldviews — as the overarching lens that guides every decision about data collection, integration, and use. Both quantitative and qualitative strands serve the goal of advancing equity, challenging power structures, and producing actionable knowledge for marginalized communities.
