“…Qualitative and quantitative data may be collected and analysed separately, and the findings from each type of data may also be (largely) reported separately. Such studies are common but do not reflect the full potential of mixing methods (Yin, 2006;Guetterman et al, 2020).…”

“…Robust mixed methods research involves intentional and meaningful integration of the qualitative and quantitative elements -integration that leads to "a new whole or a more holistic understanding than achieved by either alone" (Fetters & Molina-Azorin, 2017, p. 293). This integration can occur at many stages of a research study (Creamer, 2018;Fetters & Molina-Azorin, 2017;Guetterman et al, 2020). At the outset, research questions can be designed to draw on both qualitative and quantitative data, rather than having separate questions for each type of data.…”

Mixed methods research is increasingly popular both within and beyond education because of the advantages offered by combining qualitative and quantitative methods. Some mixed methods research, however, does not fully harness the potential or depth that mixed methods has to offer. In this article, I consider some of this potential in terms of how mixed methods research can contribute to addressing “wicked problems,” theory generation, and culturally responsive research. I then discuss two important considerations for quality mixed methods research: appropriate paradigmatic foundations and the genuine integration of qualitative and quantitative components. The article is intended to provide both provocations and resources for those learning about, teaching about, considering, using, or contributing to mixed methods research in education.

“…To carry out these analyses, we used generalizable data providing evidence of the list of recurrent actions associated with the sustainable management of buildings. This approach raises the importance of standardizing the organizational process as a fundamental factor of building design to improve the control of sustainability-oriented activities in urban facilities [6].…”

Design of Cities and Buildings - Sustainability and Resilience in the Built Environment

In 2008, the Sustainable Building Certificate Program was implemented in order to identify and to foster sustainable buildings. The aim of the work is to analyze, since an organizational perspective, the contribution of the users’ “day a day” actions to archive sustainability. The principal variable is the building property actions to obtain the certification and the criteria defined at the Certification Program. The central significance of this work is to define how important is the implementation of strategies to introduce sustainable patterns to the building users in contrast with the facility features. The most interesting finding shows that certification design and punctuation assignation to each criteria influence in sustainable actions. The incorporation of technology devices primes over the sustainable actions by the users of the buildings. This condition represents a practical implication because the sustainable actions pattern presents a challenge to the sustainable vision. People do not assume the sustainability as a change in human actions, but a technological question. So, the central value of this research is to demonstrate the very low importance in the Mexico City certification program and stakeholders in sustainable user’s patterns. The principal limitation the research is many sustainable buildings, certificated by international programs were not includes. This consideration implies future studies, to identify a general tendency of sustainable actions related with the users’ activity.

This April 2021 issue of the Journal of Mixed Methods Research (JMMR) includes an editorial for a new virtual special issue, six articles and one media review. In the editorial, Fabregues, Molina-Azorin and Fetters (2021) introduce the third virtual special issue of JMMR. A virtual special issue is an online-only collection of previously published JMMR articles about an important topic in the field of mixed methods research. The first two virtual special issues focused on paradigms (Molina-Azorin & Fetters, 2020) and integration (Guetterman, Molina-Azorin and Fetters, 2020). In this third virtual special issue, five editorials and eight articles have been selected regarding another important topic: quality in mixed methods research. All three virtual special issues can be seen in the JMMR webpage under the ''Collections'' section. (https://journals.sagepub.com/home/mmr). In the first article of this issue, Akerblad et al. (2021) with affiliations in social sciences and philosophy, have introduced the concept of integrative strategy. This constitutes the efforts that researchers make to carry out a mixed methods research process where they are aware of and explicate the choices concerning the relationship between foundations (methodological-philosophical justifications) and praxis (practical processes of the research, the ''doings'' during the research process in a study). The authors' methodological purpose was to appraise the concept of integrative strategy and to identify how different types of integrative strategies can inform discussions and practices regarding integration in mixed methods research. Moreover, the authors examined specific perspectives on integration and analyzed three mixed methods studies as cases in order to examine and compare research practices concerning integration, and identify integrative strategies in each case.
