Mixed Methods is a research design method.
Research designs are plans and procedures for
research that span the decisions of questions
design, data collection and analysis. (Crewswell,

4. Why is this important for UX professionals
today?
Big data has changed a lot, including how we
make decisions and develop products.
We are rediscovering what Social Scientists
learned in the early 20th century - it also
comes with its shortfalls and biases.
Hence - the importance of Mixed Methods.

24. Do’s Don’ts
• Connect with your analytics /
data science team
• Understand the questions they
have around their data, how
could qualitative work build on
that?
• Share your work and challenges
• Create shared language
• Tell yourself you don’t know
numbers or understand data
• Get disheartened about no
shared language and shared ways
of working
• Do not work in a silo
