सारांश	The sequential exploratory mixed methods design begins with a qualitative phase to explore a poorly understood phenomenon, then builds on those findings in a second quantitative phase — most commonly to develop and test a measurement instrument, or to test whether themes identified qualitatively generalise across a broader population. The two phases are conducted in sequence, with qualitative results explicitly informing the design and content of the quantitative strand.	Grounded Theory (GT) is a systematic qualitative research methodology in which theory emerges directly from data through iterative analysis, rather than being imposed before data collection. Developed by Barney Glaser and Anselm Strauss in 1967, GT prioritizes generating explanatory frameworks grounded in evidence.
