In making decisions about your use of a mixed methods design study, describe and discuss the following:

• How you will determine the order in which to implement qualitative and quantitative aspects of the study
• How you will decide the extent to which each type of data [qualitative and quantitative] will be incorporated into your study
• How you will decide if the two types of data are to be combined/mixed
• How you will determine and apply a theory guiding the design of your study
