Abstract
Justifying mixed method approach through a philosophical paradigm is always a tough call, even for experienced researchers. In this regard, this research aims to justify the use of ‘Pragmatism’ supporting mixed method approach with the help of Laughlin (1995) matrix or methodological framework. For investigation, this research has used articulation approach; grounding essential theoretical information around pragmatism within Laughlin methodological framework to justify its use as a valid academic approach to mixed method research.
