Takes students through all aspects of working with mixed methods from research design and data collection through to analysis and conclusions.

Looking for a practical guide to using mixed methodologies? This book explores the most effective way to combine qualitative and quantitative techniques. It begins with a discussion of the paradigm wars between positivism and constructivism, explains the difference between using mixed methods in just the research methodology portion of a study versus using mixed model studies across all phases of the process, and then presents a typology of mixed methods and mixed model studies.

Surveying the differing viewpoints and disciplinary approaches to using mixed-methods, this volume helps the reader explore the answers to a wide range of key questions in the field.
