The Difference between Mixed and Multi Methods

Define Mixed Methods "Use of both qualitative and quantitative methods to study phenomena. These two sets of methods can be used simultaneously or at different stages of the same study." from www.uwex.edu/ces/tobaccoeval/glossary.html

The difference between SAD and MAD is SAD or single approach design is when extra qualitative and/or quantitative strategies are employed to get a more detailed and enhance research quality whereas MAD or mixed approach design requires you to be able to tell the difference between research strategies and research approach.

After reading the blog online, here are my options on multi-method research and mixed-method research, multi-method is when use both qualitative and quantitative data but you treat them as two separate data sets, so you analyse them as qualitative and quantitative. Compared to mixed when you mix the finds of both data sets and compare them together as a whole. 

In my option they both have their good points and both bad points, multi-method research allows you to see clearly the different methods that were used and the results that were found, but mixed-method research allows you to compare the different data’s that you get and create a move overall and concrete view on a topic area.
