सारांश	Sequential pragmatic mixed methods is a mixed-methods research design in which quantitative and qualitative data strands are collected and analyzed in a defined sequence — one strand following and building on the other — with the entire design anchored in a pragmatic philosophical worldview. Pragmatism foregrounds research usefulness and problem-solving, treating method choice as a practical decision rather than an ideological commitment, and it provides the integrative logic for combining the two strands into actionable insights.	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.
