خلاصه	Quantitative-priority mixed methods design is a research approach in which quantitative data and analysis carry the primary explanatory weight, while qualitative data play a supplementary or corroborating role. The researcher collects and analyzes quantitative data first (or concurrently with greater emphasis), then uses qualitative findings to elaborate, explain, or contextualize the statistical results. Priority and sequence together define where integration occurs and how each strand informs the other.	The multiphase mixed methods design is a sustained research program in which quantitative and qualitative strands are combined across three or more sequential phases — or across multiple related projects — to address a central program objective. Each phase builds on the prior phase's findings, making the design well-suited to long-term evaluation, intervention development, and large-scale program assessment where a single data-collection cycle cannot fully address the complexity of the research problem.
