Resumen	Qualitative-dominant transformative mixed methods is a mixed methods research design in which qualitative data carry the primary evidential weight while quantitative data serve a supplementary role, and the entire inquiry is governed by a transformative theoretical framework — one committed to social justice, equity, and the amplification of marginalized voices. The design produces rich contextual understanding alongside statistical corroboration to advance emancipatory or advocacy-oriented goals.	Transformative mixed methods design embeds a social-justice or advocacy theoretical framework — such as feminism, critical race theory, disability studies, or indigenous worldviews — as the overarching lens that guides every decision about data collection, integration, and use. Both quantitative and qualitative strands serve the goal of advancing equity, challenging power structures, and producing actionable knowledge for marginalized communities.
