Resumo	The equal-weight transformative mixed methods design combines quantitative and qualitative strands at equal priority (QUAN + QUAL) within an overarching transformative theoretical framework — such as feminist, critical race, disability rights, or social justice theory. Both data types carry equivalent evidential weight, and the entire study is structured to challenge inequity, give voice to marginalized groups, and generate findings oriented toward advocacy and social change.	Transformative mixed methods design embeds a social-justice or advocacy theoretical framework — such as feminism, critical race theory, disability studies, or indigenous worldviews — as the overarching lens that guides every decision about data collection, integration, and use. Both quantitative and qualitative strands serve the goal of advancing equity, challenging power structures, and producing actionable knowledge for marginalized communities.
