Rezumat	The mixed methods matrix is a systematic framework for classifying, planning, and comparing mixed methods research designs along key dimensions such as timing (concurrent vs. sequential), priority (quantitative- vs. qualitative-dominant), and point of integration. It provides researchers with a structured map to make design decisions explicit, communicate choices transparently, and locate a study within the broader mixed methods typology.	The concurrent embedded mixed methods design collects quantitative and qualitative data at the same time, but assigns unequal priority to the two strands: one (usually quantitative) serves as the primary study, while the other (usually qualitative) is nested inside it to answer a supplementary question. The embedded strand does not stand alone; it provides a different perspective on the same phenomenon within a single unified study.
