Adding a qualitative component to a quantitative research project to add greater understanding of numerical findings is called adding depth breadth( depth, breadth )
Adding a quantitative component to a fundamentally qualitative project is called adding breadth depth( breadth, depth )
Who said "What distinguishes mixed-method evaluation is thus the intentional or planned use of diverse methods for particular mixed-method purposes using particular mixed-method designs"?
