Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Perhaps the strongest argument for MM research is that some questions require mixed methods. Pragmatism, a paradigm often associated with MM research, provides a basis for a position that has been stated as the dictatorship of the research question (Tashakkori & Teddlie, 2003, p. 21). Pragmatist researchers consider that it is the research question that should drive the inquiry, and its design and methods. They reject a forced choice between the traditional postpositivists' and constructivists' modes of inquiry.

Answer to Question 2

D
