The explosion of platform social data as digital secondary data, collectable through sophisticated and automatized query systems or algorithms, makes it possible to accumulate huge amounts of dense and miscellaneous data. The challenge for social researchers becomes how to extract meaning and not only trends in a quantitative and in a qualitative manner. Through the application of a digital mixed content analysis design, we present the potentiality of a hybrid digitalized approach to social content applied to a very tricky question: the recognition of risk perception during the first phase of COVID-19 in the Italian Twittersphere. The contribution of our article to mixed methods research consists in the extension of the existing definitions of content analysis as a mixed approach by combining hermeneutic and automated procedures, and by creating a design model with vast application potential, especially when applied to the digital scenario.

The rare circumstances of COVID-19 have transformed research toward increased dependence on online spaces. This article examines related challenges and opportunities, focusing on how philosophical and ethical implications are differentially manifest amid crisis. Anchored by a transformative perspective, our framework recognizes heightened vulnerabilities amid COVID-19; it seeks dexterous strategies for implementing qualitative strands that adapt well to a virtual context while remaining philosophically grounded and ethical. Our findings highlight issues of unequal access, disembodiment, safety and vulnerability, researcher positionality, anonymity, and the delineation between private and public spaces; we also showcase an array of virtual qualitative methods. We conclude that ethical practice in the use of online methods is likely to be broadly applicable and adaptable to the mixed methods research community.

Mixed methods research (MMR) is inherently a boundary spanning practice (Archibald, 2016). Common to this understanding is that boundary spanning occurs over the methodological borderlines of qualitative and quantitative research approaches. Equally relevant is the boundary spanning that takes place within and between investigative teams, communities, stakeholder groups, and bodies of knowledge. Bridging across boundaries attends to the spirit of diversity characteristic of MMR (Greene, 2007), enables collective responses to complex social problems (Lucero et al., 2018; Poth, 2018), provides opportunities to approach persistent challenges from new angles (Johnson et al., 2007)
混合方法研究(MMR)本质上是一种跨越边界的实践(Archibald, 2016)。这种理解的共同点是，边界跨越发生在定性和定量研究方法的方法论边界上。同样重要的是调查小组、社区、利益相关者团体和知识体系内部和之间的边界跨越。跨越边界的桥梁关注了MMR的多样性精神(Greene, 2007)，使集体应对复杂的社会问题成为可能(Lucero et al.， 2018;Poth, 2018)，提供了从新的角度处理持续挑战的机会(Johnson et al.， 2007)。

Assessing student knowledge based on their writing using traditional qualitative methods is time-consuming. To improve speed and consistency of text analysis, we present our mixed methods development of a machine learning predictive model to analyze student writing. Our approach involves two stages: first an exploratory sequential design, and second an iterative complex design. We first trained our predictive model using qualitative coding of categories (ideas) in student writing. We next revised our model based on feedback from instructor-users. The model itself highlighted categories in need of revision. The contribution to mixed methods research lies in our innovative use of the machine learning tool as a rapid, consistent additional coder, and a resource that can predict codes for new student writing.

Researchers need approaches for analyzing complex phenomena when assessing contingency relationships where specific conditions explain an outcome only when combined with other conditions. Using a mixed methods design, we paired configurational methods and qualitative thematic analysis to model contingency in veteran community reintegration outcomes, identifying combinations of conditions that led to success or lack of success in community reintegration among US military veterans. This pairing allowed for modeling contingency at a detailed level beyond the capabilities of either approach alone. Our analysis revealed multiple contingent relationships at work in explaining reintegration, including social support, purpose, cultural adjustment, and military separation experiences. This study contributes to the field of mixed methods by pairing a mathematical cross-case method with a qualitative method to model contingency.

This January 2023 issue of the Journal of Mixed Methods Research (JMMR) includes an editorial, 5 articles, and 2 media reviews. In the editorial, Guetterman et al. (2023) discuss the issue of quality in mixed methods research. Major developments are reviewed and some remaining gaps and needs are identified. Quality is challenging given different use of terms. For example, quality, validity, and legitimation are often used interchangeably. Quality is further complicated by concerns that research is too contextual and discipline specific to have common quality criteria. However, common criteria are needed, and we concluded with a call to the field to develop core quality reporting criteria for mixed methods research as a way of reaching consensus. Regarding the 5 articles published in this issue, 3 manuscripts focus on quality in mixed methods research. Specifically, in the first article, Hirose and Creswell (2023), with affiliations in psychology and education, proposed 6 core quality criteria: a rationale for mixed methods; quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods questions or aims; separate quantitative and qualitative data; a mixed methods design and a diagram; integration in a joint display; and metainferences and value from the integration analysis. The authors provided a specific case illustration of these criteria, examining their application in an empirical study. In the second article, Perez et al. (2023), with affiliations in educational psychology and health sciences, also focused on quality standards in mixed methods research, exploring and extending the legitimation typology developed by Onwuegbuzie and Johnson (2006). Specifically, the purpose of this article is to examine how researchers are using this typology in their mixed methods studies and to extend and refine the typology for a better use in mixed methods research.
