Quantitative-dominant transformative mixed methods

Quantitative-dominant transformative mixed methods design embeds a transformative theoretical lens — such as feminist, critical race, or disability theory — as the overarching framework of a study while assigning greater weight and priority to quantitative data collection and analysis. Qualitative data play a secondary, supplementary role, typically contextualising or deepening statistical findings. The design is common in social justice, equity, and advocacy-oriented applied research where large-scale measurement is essential but must be grounded in an explicit commitment to marginalized communities.
