  Mixed Methods Research According to the  National Institutes of Health , mixed methods strategically integrate or combine rigorous quantitative and qualitative research methods to draw on the strengths of each. Mixed method approaches allow researchers to use diverse methods, combining inductive and deductive thinking, and offsetting limitations of exclusively quantitative and qualitative research through a complementary approach that maximizes the strengths of each data type and facilitates a more comprehensive understanding of health issues and potential resolutions. Mixed methods may be employed to produce a robust description and interpretation of the data, make quantitative results more understandable, or understand the broader applicability of small-sample qualitative findings. Johnson, Onwuegbuzie, and Turner define mixed methods research as “the type of research in which a researcher or a team of researchers combines elements of quantitative and qualitative approac...

  Technological Research Technological research proposes stimulating challenges starting from the new scenarios arising since the XX century, the environmental imperative imposes new responsibilities, the industrial production, requires the rethinking of the concept of "material culture" as well as new information technologies lead to new models of theoretical and conceptual elaboration. The Technological Research Methodology describes how technology develops and improves. It is analogous to scientific methodology.
