สรุป	Sequential qualitative-priority mixed design is a two-phase mixed methods approach in which a qualitative strand is conducted first and carries greater weight in the overall study. The quantitative phase follows and serves to extend, test, or generalize the qualitative findings. The QUAL-first, QUAL-dominant logic makes this design well suited to exploratory research where theory or instruments are underdeveloped and must be grounded in participants' own words before being scaled up.	The exploratory sequential mixed methods design is a two-phase research framework in which a qualitative phase is conducted first to explore a poorly understood phenomenon, and the findings then inform a subsequent quantitative phase — typically to develop and test a survey instrument, measure a theory, or generalize qualitative insights to a larger population. The qualitative strand guides what is measured; the quantitative strand tests or extends those findings at scale.
