  5. Grounded Theory: A Guide for Exploratory Studies in Management Research

    Grounded theory was first introduced more than 50 years ago, but researchers are often still uncertain about how to implement it. This is not surprising, considering that even the two pioneers of this qualitative design, Glaser and Strauss, have different views about its approach, and these are just two of multiple variations found in the literature.

  6. What is grounded theory?

    Grounded theory (GT) is a research method concerned with the generation of theory,1 which is 'grounded' in data that has been systematically collected and analysed.2 It is used to uncover such things as social relationships and behaviours of groups, known as social processes.3 It was developed in California, USA by Glaser and Strauss during their study—'Awareness of Dying'.1 It is a ...

    Since being developed as a research methodology in the 1960s, grounded theory (GT) has grown in popularity. In spite of its prevalence, considerable confusion surrounds GT, particularly in respect of the essential methods that characterize this approach to research. Misinformation is evident in the literature around issues such as the various ...

  11. Grounded Theory

    Grounded theory is a systematic research method in social sciences that involves discovering theory directly from the data. It integrates quantitative and qualitative perspectives to develop a theory that is grounded in the context of the phenomenon under study. This method utilizes a structured data-gathering and analytical process called the ...

  12. Selecting a Grounded Theory Approach for Nursing Research

    Introduction. Grounded theory is a research approach that appeals to nurses for several reasons. Grounded theory helps nurses to understand, develop, and utilize real-world knowledge about health concerns (Nathaniel & Andrews, 2007).In practice, grounded theories enable nurses to see patterns of health in groups, communities, and populations and predict health and practice concerns in nursing ...

  17. The pursuit of quality in grounded theory

    Introduction. American sociologists Barney Glaser and Anselm Strauss's (Citation 1967) The Discovery of Grounded Theory: Strategies for Qualitative Research not only proposed a new method of analysis, but also led the charge of defending the quality of qualitative research.Grounded theory is a systematic method of conducting research that shapes collecting data and provides explicit ...

  18. Grounded Theory: What It Is + Approach in Qualitative Research

    Grounded theory is a qualitative research methodology that involves developing theories directly from the data collected during the research process instead of relying on pre-existing theories or hypotheses. This approach aims to generate insights and understanding about a particular phenomenon by systematically analyzing and coding the data to ...

  19. Grounded Theory

    What is Grounded Theory? Grounded Theory is about "how the discovery of theory from data - systemically obtained and analyzed in social research - can be furthered." In opposition to the top down theory verification approach, "grounded theory" is the "discovery of theory from data." It is "a general method of comparative analysis."

  20. Grounded Theory Approaches Used in Educational Research Journals

    Grounded theory methodology has taken on different iterations since its introduction. In 1990, Strauss and Corbin published a revisionist methodology, Basics of Qualitative Research: Grounded Theory Procedures and Techniques, which included a number of derivations and extrapolations from the original 1967 methodology. Their work spawned a division in what came to be known as "Straussian ...

  21. How to do a grounded theory study: a worked example of a study of

    Qualitative methodologies are increasingly popular in medical research. Grounded theory is the methodology most-often cited by authors of qualitative studies in medicine, but it has been suggested that many 'grounded theory' studies are not concordant with the methodology. In this paper we provide a worked example of a grounded theory project.
