Zusammenfassung	The evaluation-oriented mixed methods matrix is a structured planning and display tool applied within program evaluation contexts. It maps evaluation questions against data sources, timing, and method types — quantitative and qualitative — in a grid format, making the integration logic explicit and auditable. Rooted in Greene's value-engaged mixed methods tradition and Teddlie and Tashakkori's matrix framework, it serves evaluators who must justify methodological choices to stakeholders while addressing multiple evaluation purposes simultaneously.	The multiphase mixed methods design is a sustained research program in which quantitative and qualitative strands are combined across three or more sequential phases — or across multiple related projects — to address a central program objective. Each phase builds on the prior phase's findings, making the design well-suited to long-term evaluation, intervention development, and large-scale program assessment where a single data-collection cycle cannot fully address the complexity of the research problem.
