Sažetak	The embedded quantitative-priority mixed design is a mixed methods research structure in which a dominant quantitative study (survey, experiment, or longitudinal assessment) provides the primary basis for conclusions, while a qualitative component is embedded within that quantitative framework to address a question the numbers alone cannot answer. Priority and resources lie with the quantitative strand; the qualitative strand enriches, contextualizes, or explains a specific aspect of the larger quantitative investigation.	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.
