Sequential Mixed Methods Matrix
The sequential mixed methods matrix is an integration tool used in sequential mixed methods designs — explanatory (QUAN → qual) or exploratory (qual → QUAN) — to display and synthesize quantitative results and qualitative findings side-by-side in a structured table. Also called a joint display matrix, it makes the process of connecting the two strands of evidence explicit, transparent, and auditable, helping researchers draw meta-inferences that neither strand alone could support.

Curated claims
Claims persisted in the evidence ledger, each with its own assessment.
This view does not invent a claim assessment when the ledger has none.
