Összefoglaló	An embedded exploratory sequential mixed methods design opens with a qualitative phase that explores an understudied phenomenon, then embeds a secondary quantitative strand within or alongside that primary qualitative work. The qualitative findings guide what is measured quantitatively, while the embedded quantitative data provide additional scope or precision without displacing the qualitative logic driving the study.	Embedded multiphase mixed methods is a research design in which a secondary data strand (qualitative or quantitative) is nested within a primary, dominant strand across two or more sequential study phases. Each phase builds on the prior one, while the embedded strand enhances understanding of specific sub-questions that the dominant strand alone cannot answer. This design is suited to complex, longitudinal, or program-evaluation research problems requiring sustained inquiry across stages.
