Mixed Methods in Educational Psychology features articles that provide methodological and theoretical insights for researchers about the use of mixed methods to help address common educational problems including: identifying and exploring socially-situated and contextualized learning processes; providing insights into differences across individuals with respect to educational outcomes; and building instruments that reflect the experiences of individuals who will be assessed by these instruments.
