Σύνοψη	Design-based quantitative-priority mixed methods research integrates a design-based research (DBR) framework — which involves iterative cycles of design, implementation, and refinement in naturalistic settings — with a mixed methods approach where quantitative data collection and analysis carry the primary evidentiary weight. Qualitative data are gathered in a supporting role to illuminate, explain, or refine quantitative findings across iterative design cycles.	Action research is a collaborative research methodology in which researchers work with practitioners and community members to investigate a problem, implement change, and evaluate outcomes, cycling through reflection, action, and learning. Developed by Kurt Lewin (1946), action research bridges research and practice, aiming simultaneously to produce knowledge and practical improvement.
