Sammanfattning	Quantitative-priority mixed methods design is a research approach in which quantitative data and analysis carry the primary explanatory weight, while qualitative data play a supplementary or corroborating role. The researcher collects and analyzes quantitative data first (or concurrently with greater emphasis), then uses qualitative findings to elaborate, explain, or contextualize the statistical results. Priority and sequence together define where integration occurs and how each strand informs the other.	The concurrent triangulation mixed methods design collects quantitative and qualitative data simultaneously, analyzes each strand independently, and then merges the results to assess whether the two data sources corroborate one another. Often called the convergent parallel design, it is one of the foundational configurations in mixed methods research and is chosen specifically when the researcher wants to cross-validate or triangulate findings from two distinct methodological traditions.
