"Mixed methods has become a popular research approach among our graduate studentsUnlike any other methods textbook, Michael D. Fetters’ book, through workbook activities, provides our students excellent, straightforward, hands-on experience for designing, implementing, and publishing their projects." -- Wenfan Yan, Ph.D.
"Originally, I assigned this book as an optional resource in my mixed methods courses, but the students and I loved it so much that it′s now here to stay! The Mixed Methods Research Workbook is a truly excellent source for newcomers and experienced mixed methods researchers alike!" -- Leia K. Cain, Ph.D.
"This workbook is an interesting and useful resource for scholars, graduate students, and individuals with an interest in mixed methods research. Various characteristics and problems of research are introduced through the chapters, which may be useful in the classroom context and the research process as well. Using understandable but professional language supports the reader in understanding the content of the book. I would suggest using it in university and doctoral courses as well as in the professional development of university lecturers." -- Karolina Eszter Kovács PhD
"This is an excellent resource and reference book by Michael D. Fetters (2020), The Mixed Methods Research Workbook. I will strongly recommend this book to academics, educators, clinicians, researchers, and students who are starting to embark on Mixed Methods research. As a lecturer in health education in higher education, I find this book a great addition to my reading list; it also provided me with some teaching ideas. It offers great and unique advantage in comparison to other textbooks in that it is also a workbook with several practical activities to work on." -- Josephine Morris MSc in Rehab, PGDiP/PGCE BSc, MA LTHE, MCSP; PTRP & Prof Doctorate in Education Candidate
"One of the most important components of carrying out a mixed methods research project is being able to clearly demonstrate the integration (the mixing of two approaches) as a unique piece that is a major contributing piece for the solution or understanding of a particular research problem or question. This integration goes beyond any one single approach and assists in delving deeper into complex phenomena that multiple approaches may not be able to examine. This textbook /workbook, through its new instructional way of presenting the concepts to novice researchers, permits for the correct implementation of such concepts by assisting the research to follow, minimally, required design steps in the process and carry them out correctly." -- Arturo Olivarez

"As a doctoral student, I was struggling with trying to make sense of my dissertation project, which was a complex mixed methods research design and intersecting mixed methods research and social network analysis. It was so hard to make connections among multiple, moving pieces of my mixed methods research project and convince my audience (i.e., committee members). This book helped me be more thoughtful about designing and implementing my dissertation research project through its effective activities and critical and thought-provoking questions.
This is the book that can help you break through your barriers to design, implement, and publish your culminating projects! I highly recommend benefiting from this beneficial resource that helps you organize your thoughts and your research project."
