The purpose of this VSI is to engage in imagining a wealth of design possibilities for mixed methods research by drawing upon a curated collection of 11 empirical and methodological articles as well as two editorials previously published in JMMR. We weave discussions of the collection into our discussions of design advancements and conversations. We conclude with practices that help us to realize our imagined design possibilities.
