In this article, interrelated models appropriate for conceptualizing a mixed research design within a hybrid design are presented. Initially, the discussion centers on outlining the core principles defining community-based participatory research and characteristics defining mixed research. The design model presents selective examples of mixed research elements to be considered when the researcher is strategizing the design. The integration model details the language of integration and the role of legitimation as it relates to integration. The integrity model presents selective quality criteria designed to elevate credibility of the conclusions. The contribution of this article lies in its focus on mixed research design within the hybrid design, and the presentation of interrelated models, namely, design, integration, and integrity models that address this focus.
