Muhtasari	Participatory quantitative-priority mixed design combines a community-engaged, participatory research framework with a mixed methods structure in which the quantitative strand carries primary weight. Stakeholders and community members co-shape research questions, instruments, and interpretation, while quantitative data provide the dominant evidence base and qualitative data serve a complementary, explanatory, or contextualizing role. This design is particularly suited to applied, evaluative, and social-justice-oriented inquiry where both statistical rigor and community voice are required.	Participatory qualitative-priority mixed design combines a participatory research worldview with a qualitative-dominant mixed methods structure. The qualitative strand carries the primary explanatory weight — capturing lived experience, meaning, and community voice — while a smaller quantitative strand supplements and contextualises the findings. Community members or stakeholders are active co-researchers throughout, shaping questions, data collection, analysis, and action planning.
