Description
Summary:This article highlights “reflexive integration” as a methodological tool that can facilitate the explicit integration of quantitative or qualitative elements in mixed-methods research. Reflexive integration of research elements (RIRE) is advocated as a mechanism that can be used in any mixed-method study to enhance depth of inquiry and transparency of the steps involved in mixed-method research. An illustrative example is presented to show the step-by-step process of reflexive integration at various stages of a mixed-method study.
