This study, which deals with the reasons why refugees prefer Türkiye as destination in the sample of refugee students studying at different high schools in Eskişehir, was conducted with the exploratory sequential design mixed method. The mixed method, which is built on the assumption that the researcher's combining quantitative data with qualitative data will provide more advantages than using either of these methods alone in order to better understand the problem of the research, is defined as a research approach that “collects both quantitative and qualitative data to understand it, integrates two data sets and then obtains results by taking advantage of the said integration” (Creswell, 2019, p. 2). The explanatory sequential design (QUANTITATIVE → qualitative) is a research design in which qualitative data are collected after primarily quantitative data are collected and analyzed. “In this design, priority is on the quantitative data. Qualitative data, on the other hand, are obtained to increase, complete and elaborate the quantitative data. Besides, analysis of findings is interrelated and both data sets are usually synthesized in data interpretation and discussion sections. 976 refugee students who came to Türkiye from countries such as Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran and Syria and studying at high schools in Eskişehir constitute the study population of the research. The sample group was determined by using simple random sampling methods in the quantitative part and purposive sampling methods in the qualitative part. 278 students in the quantitative part (as shown in Table 2) and 27 students in the qualitative part (as shown in Table 3) formed the sample groups.
