Discuss reasons for choosing a mixed method approach to research.

Correct Answer

Reasons for choosing a mixed method approach to research include the desire for triangulation. Triangulation can increase the study's validity by using the different methods to achieve corroboration of results achieved from the different approaches. Complementarity is another reason for using the mixed method approach. Complementarity means the researcher is striving to enhance, illustrate, or clarify the results achieved through use of input from both quantitative and qualitative designs. Like triangulation, complementarity also can increase the validity of the research and further increase the interpretability of the results generated. Other rationales for choosing a mixed method approach include the desire to extend the range of the inquiry used in the study as well as the desire to use results achieved so one method strengthens the other method.

Differentiate between concurrent timing and sequential timing in application to the mixed research design.
