Përmbledhja	Embedded mixed methods meta-inference is the process of drawing a single, overarching conclusion by integrating the inferences from a dominant (primary) strand and an embedded (secondary) strand within an embedded mixed methods design. The embedded strand — typically qualitative nested inside a quantitative study, or vice versa — answers a supplemental question, and meta-inference synthesises both strands into one coherent interpretive claim that neither strand could produce alone.	Multilevel mixed methods design is a research approach that collects and integrates both quantitative and qualitative data at two or more distinct levels of a social or organizational hierarchy — for example, individuals nested within classrooms, classrooms within schools, or patients within healthcare teams. By pairing quantitative measurement of outcomes at one level with qualitative exploration of meaning at another, researchers gain a richer, more complete picture than either strand alone could provide.
