A CONCISE INTRODUCTION TO MIXED METHODS RESEARCH
John W. Creswell, University of Michigan
This brief overview of mixed methods research takes readers through the essential steps in planning and designing a
study. Rather than offering an extensive treatment of mixed methods, this concise book offers individuals in the social,
behavioral, and health sciences a foundation for understanding mixed methods methodology. Practical for use in
workshops, seminars, global webinars, and as a supplementary text in undergraduate and graduate classes, Creswell's
book is ideal for the beginner or the more advanced researcher looking for a quick primer in mixed methods.
