the design should naturally follow.

Mixed vs Multi-Methods
A program of research may be multi-methods
E.g. you have 2 quantitative and 2 qualitative
studies. Same body of work, but research
questions inherently call each for a single method
Mixed methods applies mixing, within a single
project
Your research question dictates you need more
than one method to answer it fully
