Abstract
In this chapter, we discuss the application of mixed methods thinking to social network analysis, a methodological approach that focuses on social relationships and structures. For that purpose, we first define mixed methods and social network analysis and their intersection, which we call Mixed Methods Social Network Analysis (MMSNA). We then summarize the historical developments in social network analysis, which also explain the reason for the increasing application of MMSNA in educational research. The majority of the chapter then focuses on how MMSNA is applied in educational research and what the main topics of the current academic debates are.
