Resumen	The sequential quantitative-priority mixed design collects and analyzes quantitative data first, then follows with a qualitative strand to elaborate, explain, or contextualize the quantitative findings. The quantitative component is given greater weight in the overall study, meaning the primary research questions and conclusions are primarily grounded in the quantitative evidence, with the qualitative strand playing a supplementary, explanatory role.	The explanatory sequential mixed methods design is a two-phase research approach in which a quantitative study is conducted first, and qualitative data are then collected specifically to help explain or elaborate the initial quantitative results. The quantitative phase carries greater priority; the qualitative phase is purposefully built around the findings — such as surprising results, outliers, or statistically significant relationships — that need deeper interpretation.
