Σύνοψη	Concurrent multiphase mixed methods design combines the structural complexity of multiphase research — spanning several distinct project phases — with concurrent (simultaneous) data collection within each phase. At each stage, quantitative and qualitative data strands are gathered and analyzed in parallel rather than sequentially, and findings are integrated across phases to address a program of interrelated research questions over time.	The concurrent triangulation mixed methods design collects quantitative and qualitative data simultaneously, analyzes each strand independently, and then merges the results to assess whether the two data sources corroborate one another. Often called the convergent parallel design, it is one of the foundational configurations in mixed methods research and is chosen specifically when the researcher wants to cross-validate or triangulate findings from two distinct methodological traditions.
