ABSTRACT
While the concept of mixed method social network analysis (MMSNA) is gaining in popularity, there is a notable lack of specific mixed research designs that guide the implementation of MMSNA. In this chapter, I draw from qualitative social network analysis, specifically, qualitative structural analysis, and expand it toward a mixed research design. This change, which requires relatively little additional input, fulfills several important purposes at the same time, and hence may be conducive in increasing the overall quality of a study.
