Σύνοψη	An evaluation-oriented quantitative-priority mixed methods design applies mixed methods inquiry within an evaluation context, where the primary purpose is judging a program, policy, or intervention. Quantitative data carry the greater evidential weight — measuring outcomes, effectiveness, and reach — while qualitative data serve as a secondary, explanatory strand that contextualizes and deepens interpretation of the quantitative findings.	Multilevel mixed methods design is a research approach that collects and integrates both quantitative and qualitative data at two or more distinct levels of a social or organizational hierarchy — for example, individuals nested within classrooms, classrooms within schools, or patients within healthcare teams. By pairing quantitative measurement of outcomes at one level with qualitative exploration of meaning at another, researchers gain a richer, more complete picture than either strand alone could provide.
