“…The sequential approach began with a qualitative phase by exploring entrepreneurial business behavior regarding digitalization technology in rural areas. This exploratory sequential mixed methods design integrates and synergizes data sources to explore the main problem and digital technology absorption in dynamic and complex rural areas (Creswell & Creswell, 2018;Poth & Munce, 2020;Munce et al, 2021;Dawadi et al, 2021).…”

The digitalization technology transformation of entrepreneurship has positive impacts but also increases inequality and disrupts the sustainable development goals (SDGs). This study aimed to examine the impact of digitalization technology transformation on rural entrepreneurship and explain its mitigation efforts using exploratory sequential mixed methods. The policy acceptance model method was used to reduce uncertainty in analyzing entrepreneurial behavior patterns. Data were collected using questionnaires and semi-structured interviews equipped with ethnographic observations. The results showed that the digitalization technology transformation of rural entrepreneurship supports various new potentials. These include decent work opportunities, family entrepreneurship, and local economic growth. However, the technology increases inequality and the fear of traditional markets that could disrupt achieving other sustainable development goals (SDGs). This inequality and the risk of uncertainty could be mitigated by the social solidarity economic transformation business model based on the potential of local humanist wisdom. Therefore, this study could provide scientific information and implications for social and institutional policies. It could also contribute to the literature on new institutional and social entrepreneurship innovation theories related to the wave of Kontratieff Schumpeter.

Predictive Sequential Research Design to Study Complex Social Phenomena

Social phenomena in their simplest form share infinite complexities and relationships, and by interacting with other entities, their levels of complexity become exponentially inexplicable and incomprehensible. Using a single form of study in complex phenomena could be insufficient, and new forms of analysis should be opened that allow for observing the multidimensionality of study problems from integrative perspectives. The emergence of research using mixed methods attempts to reconcile these methodologies through integration, configuring a stage of interconnection between research paradigms that cause cuts and leaks that may or may not be consistent with the study’s object. At the time of integration, vices can be created by specific value and subjectivity judgments, with investigative diffraction being an alternative to extend integration through data fracture and redirecting the object of study. This work proposes a Predictive Sequential Research Design (DISPRE) for complex social phenomena, which uses fuzzy logic as a tool to solve the information biases caused by the investigative diffraction of each methodological approach as a strategy to capture, explain, understand and predict the intrinsic complexity of the social entity under study.

“…While other researchers have used exploratory sequential designs that gather and analyze narratives (for example, Munce et al, 2021), the explicit role of the narratives has not in the past been articulated. The exception is a recent study by Waller and colleagues (2021) who through an exploratory sequential design used qualitative narratives (gathered from semi-structured interviews) to construct narrative case histories from survey data (Waller et al, 2021).…”

While many advances have been made mixing other methodologies with mixed methods research (MMR), there are few examples of narrative MMR or detailed procedures for integrating the narrative approach into mixed methods studies. This article contributes to the MMR field an example of integrating narratives in MMR by applying a methodological approach that is shaped by stories. The example integrated findings from cancer narratives with survey data to explore emotional support and quality of life of older people living with cancer. Integration was achieved by, firstly, following a thread through the research phases, and secondly, by using joint displays to align findings. The narrative MMR methodology presented is a tool for putting stories at the center of the research process.
