Qualitative-dominant mixed methods meta-inference
Qualitative-dominant mixed methods meta-inference is the overarching inference-drawing process in a mixed methods study where qualitative findings carry primary explanatory weight. Meta-inference — the integrated conclusion drawn by combining qualitative and quantitative strands — is anchored to and interpreted through the richer, theoretically foregrounded qualitative findings, with quantitative results serving a supplementary, corroborating, or contextualizing function.
