Equal-weight explanatory sequential mixed methods design/Evidence

Equal-weight explanatory sequential mixed methods design

The equal-weight explanatory sequential mixed methods design collects and analyzes quantitative data first, then uses qualitative data to explain or elaborate on the quantitative findings, assigning equal analytic priority to both strands. Unlike the standard explanatory sequential design — where quantitative data typically holds dominance — this variant treats the qualitative follow-up as equally essential to the study's conclusions, not merely supplementary.
