dc.description.abstractMixed methods have become a very popular method in many fields of research. In this chapter, we will reflect on the mixed methods approach as one of the main research paradigms, and how it is implemented across the Nordic countries in the field of early childhood education (ECE). We will share our insights based on a blend of research methods and reflective practice. Our research question we reflect upon is: How much are mixed methods used in ECE research in the Nordic countries? In order to answer this, recent publications from two Nordic journals (2018–2020) are explored with the help of systematic content analysis. This is done in order to reveal the focus areas of published research as well as to identify possible gaps. According to the results, the focus of the published journal articles was on qualitative research methods. Only 4 papers out of 47 used a mixed methods design. In our reflections, we raise questions about the research methods taught in teacher education programmes as well as in the Ph.D. programmes.en
