The methodological purpose of this article is to generate practical guidance for researchers studying complex phenomena through an adaptive case study-mixed methods (CS-MM) design. We describe CS-MM design adjustments made in response to our rapidly changeable research conditions that make complex phenomena challenging to study. We leverage Guetterman & Fetters’ (2018) CS-MM design recommendations while discussing specific adaptive design practice areas and advancing new insights gleaned from an expanded 21-month timeline when compared with a previous 4-month CS-MM study. We draw upon Mike Fetters’ extensive scholarly contributions while striving to continue his legacy for a better world and embodying Mike’s “kind mentoring” approach in our team-based study of the complex phenomena involving the response to a public health emergency.

The field of mixed methods research embraces diversity and encourages researchers to combine different perspectives, approaches, and methods to achieve meaningful insights. Navigating such rich diversity can pose challenges that can benefit from ongoing, critical self-reflection. This article introduces the concept of cultural humility in the context of mixed methods research. We aim to enhance understanding of how cultural humility can foster awareness and encourage constructive critique of assumptions, policies, and practices in the field of mixed methods research. This article serves as a foundational resource for mixed methods researchers, practitioners, and scholars to embrace cultural humility in the field. We close with a set of prompts to spark critical self-reflection and dialogue within the field.

This article proposes a novel methodology designed to identify past/ancient identities from archaeological information available in rural landscapes. It consists of a quantitative stage based on network analysis followed by a qualitative analysis based on phenomenology. Such methodology contributes to the field of mixed method research in two ways. First, in contrast to existing approaches that use people’s opinions to collect data, the proposed methodology extracts information from archaeological remains and the landscape; second, it extends the scope of topics considered by the field of mixed method research. The methodology was applied to the study of identity evolution in the Romano-British period in Shropshire. The results illustrate the potential of the proposed methodology to understand the formation/evolution of past identities.

Flexible and integrative treatment (FIT) services in Germany make it possible to shift mental health inpatient care to day- and outpatient care. This paper presents the results of the mixed methods, participatory process evaluation (= PE) of the PsychCare clinical trial, which compares the outcomes of nine FIT departments to those of eight standard mental health care services. This PE integrates diverse data using a program theory and data transformation approach. It shows various implementation types of FIT services and how their processes and structures are distinct from those of control conditions, also experienced by service users. It contributes to mixed methods research by showing that the PE methodological frame is a valuable tool to effectively involve service users and other stakeholders.

Integrating philosophical or paradigmatic dimensions in mixed methods research studies facilitates the development of stronger meta-inferences. The transformative paradigm and the explanatory sequential mixed methods design share a focus on developing sampling criteria, but with different priorities. This article contributes to the field of mixed methods research by presenting a method of integrating transformative sampling considerations in explanatory sequential designs through a participant selection joint display. The approach presented addresses concerns regarding transparency of research decisions in mixed methods studies, while providing a method of centering the transformative paradigm in mixed methods integration procedures.

The intersection of mixed methods and community-based participatory research (MMCBPR) provides a promising approach to address health inequities. Drawing from strengths of mixed methods (which provides multiple channels for individuals to share experiences) and community-based participatory research methods (which center and empower marginalized communities in research), MMCBPR allows for the development of impactful and relevant research. This article contributes to the field of mixed methods research by illustrating a novel application of MMCBPR to a pilot research study aimed at understanding community resources and needs during the COVID-19 pandemic. We demonstrate feasibility for MMCBPR methods assessing multilevel structural and social determinants of health during times of social, political, and economic uncertainty and highlight challenges experienced in adopting this approach.

Research paradigms provide a way of thinking about research, or philosophical perspectives of research. Crotty ’ s widely used four elements of the research process provide a way of thinking about research. The elements are epistemology, theoretical perspective, methodology, and methods (Crotty, 1998). Authors have extended this framework to another aspect: rhetoric (Creswell, 2013; Fetters & Molina-Azorin, 2017a). Fetters and Molina-Azorin (2017a) advanced the rhetorical dimension of integration, de fi ning it as “ Creating or adapting terminology intentionally and thoughtfully to re fl ect the mixed methods paradigm, writing with an integrated structure to illustrate the mixed methods dimension, structuring the fi ndings narrative using contiguous or weaving presentations, using metaphors to write about integration, composing integrated prose to effectively illustrate the added value of mixed methods fi ndings ” (p. 295). However, the concept of rhetoric or the language used to write about and report research is often overlooked and underappreciated and too often stands in the way of researchers ’ ability to craft persuasive manuscripts about their mixed methods research practices. Scholars have paid attention to the terminology and nomenclature associated with mixed methods research since the early days of developing the fi eld dedicated to this approach.
