Leveraging an Integrated Visual Display for Case-Based Analysis in Mixed Method Research

A case-based visual display can serve as method for analysis in mixed method research. This methodological article builds an argument for the role that a matrix, diagram, table, or figure can play when used interactively to generate, elaborate, or confirm analytical insight in a case-based analysis...
