خلاصه	Sequential intervention mixed methods is a research design in which quantitative and qualitative data collection phases are arranged in sequence — one after the other — within the context of a planned intervention or experimental study. The sequencing allows each phase to build on the other: quantitative data may establish whether an intervention works, while qualitative data explain how and why it works (or does not) for specific participants or contexts.	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.
