Introduction to Grounded Theory By Steve Borgatti Discussion drawn from: Glaser and Strauss. 1967. The Discovery of Grounded Theory Strauss and Corbin. 1990. Basics of Qualitative Research Goals and Perspective The phrase "grounded theory" refers to theory that is developed inductively from a corpus of data. If done well, this means that the resulting theory at least fits one dataset perfectly. This contrasts with theory derived deductively from grand theory, without the help of data, and which could therefore turn out to fit no data at all. Grounded theory takes a case rather than variable perspective, although the distinction is nearly impossible to draw. This means in part that the researcher takes different cases to be wholes, in which the variables interact as a unit to produce certain outcomes. A case-oriented perspective tends to assume that variables interact in complex ways, and is suspicious of simple additive models, such as ANOVA with main effects only. Part and parcel of the case-orientation is a comparative orientation. Cases similar on many variables but with different outcomes are compared to see where the key causal differences may lie. This is based on John Stuart Mills' (1843, A system of logic: Ratiocinative and Inductive) method of differences essentially the use of (natural) experimental design. Similarly, cases that have the same outcome are examined to see which conditions they all have in common, thereby revealing necessary causes.

Bibliography It also explains clearly that grounded theory, Glaser style, is an emergent methodology. It provides some arguments to support that approach. Glaser (1998) is also relevant for beginners in grounded theory and is intended as a textbook for beginners. index Overview Grounded theory begins with a research situation. Within that situation, your task as researcher is to understand what is happening there, and how the players manage their roles. You will mostly do this through observation, conversation and interview. After each bout of data collection you note down the key issues: this I have labelled "note-taking Constant comparison is the heart of the process. At first you compare interview (or other data) to interview (or other data). Theory emerges quickly. When it has begun to emerge you compare data to theory.

Grounded Theory is most accurately described as a research method in which the theory is developed from the data, rather than the other way around. That makes this is an inductive approach, meaning that it moves from the specific to the more general. The method of study is essentially based on three elements: concepts, categories and propositions, or what was originally called “hypotheses”. However, concepts are the key elements of analysis since the theory is developed from the conceptualization of data, rather than the actual data. Grounded theory is often perceived as a method which separates theory and data but others insist that the method actually combines the two. Data collection, analysis and theory formulation are undeniably connected in a reciprocal sense, and the grounded theory approach incorporates explicit procedures to guide this. This is especially evident in that according to grounded theory, the processes of asking questions and making comparisons are specifically detailed to inform and guide analysis and to facilitate theorizing process. For example, it is specifically stated that the research questions must be open and general rather than formed as specific hypotheses, and that the emergent theory should account for a phenomenon that is relevant to participants.

Haig University of Canterbury G ROUNDED T HEORY During the last 30 years sociologists Barney Glaser and Anselm Strauss have formulated and developed in great detail their grounded theory perspective on social science research. S CIENTIFIC M ETHOD I shall call this general account of scientific method "abductive explanatory inferentialism" (AEI). While this is an extended label, it does serve the useful purpose of suggesting that the theory of scientific method is centrally concerned with generating theories abductively and appraising them in terms of what philosophers have come to call inference to the best explanation. I shall explain these two related ideas later. P ROBLEM F ORMULATION According to the AEI theory of scientific method, the selection and formulation of problems are of central importance to scientific research. In fact, by adopting a particular account of scientific problems, AEI method is able to explain how inquiry is possible, and at the same time provide guidance for the conduct of research. The account of problems that boasts these twin virtues is the constraint-composition theory. As mentioned earlier, Glaser and Strauss clearly recognize the importance of understanding method in the context of problem-solving. However, although they offer some thoughtful remarks about research problems, they do not give the matter systematic attention.

Using Grounded Theory to Interpret Interviews Linda Jo Calloway (lcalloway@pace.edu) Constance A. Knapp (cknapp@pace.edu) Pace University School of Computer Science and Information Systems One Pace Plaza New York, New York 10038 Introduction Studying the context in which information systems development tools are meant to function requires an appropriate research methodology. The two studies illustrate the use of such a methodology. In these studies grounded theory, an ethnographic approach, is used to capture information needed to explicate the interactions between teams and information systems development tools, and organizations and information systems development tools. According to Glaser and Strauss (1967) theories are either deduced from logical assumptions or generated from observation. Grounded theory is a qualitative approach that generates theory from observation. It provides the structure often lacking in other qualitative approaches without sacrificing flexibility or rigor. The resulting theory is an explanation of categories, their properties, and the relationships among them. The results lead to an evolutionary body of knowledge that is grounded in data. The Studies This comparison illustrates ways in which grounded theory can be used to analyze and understand interview data. The first study assesses the use of a software engineering tool, dialog charts, by systems designers (Calloway, 1988). The second study investigates organizations that use Integrated Computer-Aided Software Engineering (ICASE) tools (Knapp, 1995). We discuss the similarities and differences in the methods of information generation, data collection, data analysis and reduction, and data synthesis.

The Creation of Theory: A Recent Application of the Grounded Theory Method by Naresh R. Pandit The Qualitative Report , Volume 2, Number 4, December, 1996 (http://www.nova.edu/ssss/QR/QR2-4/pandit.html) Abstract This paper outlines a particular approach to building theory that was employed in a recent doctoral research project ( Pandit , 1995). Three aspects used in conjunction indicate the project's novelty: firstly, the systematic and rigorous application of the grounded theory method; secondly, the use of on-line computerised databases as a primary source of data; and, thirdly, the use of a qualitative data analysis software package to aid the process of grounded theory building. Introduction The principal objective of this paper is to reveal how the style of qualitative research known as the 'grounded theory approach' was applied in a research project ( Pandit , 1995) which attempted to generate a theoretical framework of corporate turnaround. Two lesser auxiliary objectives are firstly, to assess the utility of on-line computerised databases as a primary source of data for this type of research; and secondly, to assess the extent to which computer-based qualitative data analysis (QDA) software can aid this type of research. In the next section the elements of grounded theory are recalled. This is followed by a detailed account of the procedures and rationale of grounded theory building as employed in the project. Next, the generated theory of corporate turnaround is overviewed and finally, a reflexive account of the research experience is given.

Grounded Theory Definition: The intent of grounded theory is to generate or discover a theory – an abstract analytical schema of a philosophy, that relates to a particular situation. This situation could be one in which individuals interact, take actions, or engage in a process in response to a phenomenon (Creswell, 1998). Procedures Involved In Conducting A Study: In open coding , the researcher forms initial categories of information about the phenomenon being studied by segmenting information. Within each category (a category represents a unit of information composed of events, happenings and instances), the researcher finds several properties , or subcategories, and looks for data to dimensionalize , or show the extreme possibilities on a continuum of, the property. In axial coding , the researcher assembles the data in new ways after open coding. The researcher presents this using a coding paradigm or logic diagram in which he/she identifies a central phenomenon , explores causal conditions (i.e., categories of conditions that influence the phenomenon), specifies

18. A Comment On The Application Of Grounded Theory To Accounting Research grounded theory is a qualitative approach which can be used to analyze social processes that are present within human interactions. http://aaahq.org/abo/reporter/summer95/siegel.htm

A Comment on the Application of Grounded Theory to Accounting Research Philip H. Siegel, Fiesta Mart Chair of Accounting University of Houston-Downtown Recently accounting researchers have begun to explore and apply grounded research to behaviorally based problems (c.f. Blank et al. 1991; Siegel et al. 1994). Grounded theory is a qualitative approach which can be used to analyze social processes that are present within human interactions. Application of the theory results in explanations of important social processes or structures that are derived (grounded) in the empirical data. The grounded theory approach is based on the idea that a group or groups share specific social psychological problems that are not necessarily articulated (Glaser and Strauss 1967). Grounded theory is a form of field-studies that systematically applies procedural steps to develop an exploration about a particular phenomenon. As Strauss and Corbin (1990) explain: A grounded theory, is one that is inductively derived from the study of the phenomenon it represents. That is, it is discovered, developed, and provisionally verified through systematic data. collection and analysis of data pertaining to that phenomenon. Therefore, data collection, analysis, and theory stand in reciprocal relationship with each other. One does not begin with a theory, then prove it. Rather, one begins with an area of study and what is relevant to that area is allowed to emerge. The objective of grounded theory is the discovery of theoretically comprehensive explanations about particular phenomenon. The techniques and analytical procedures enable investigators to develop a substantive theory that is significant, theory-observation compatible, generalizable, reproducible and rigorous.

19. FQS 3(3) Glaser: Constructivist Grounded Theory? by Barney Glaser in Forum Qualitative Social Research online journal. http://www.qualitative-research.net/fqs-texte/3-02/3-02glaser-e.htm

Constructivist Grounded Theory? Barney G. Glaser Abstract : I refer to and use as scholarly inspiration CHARMAZ's excellent article on constructivist grounded theory as a tool of getting to the fundamental issues on why grounded theory is not constructivist. I show that constructivist data, if it exists at all, is a very very small part of the data that grounded theory uses. Key words grounded theory, constructivism, constructivist data Notes References Author Citation Download: 144 kb Discuss this Article: Discussion Board Constructivist Grounded Theory (GT) is a misnomer. GT can use any data; it remains to be figured out what it is. In my book "The Grounded Theory Perspective" (GLASER, 2001) I wrote a chapter (11) that dealt with "all is data." I said: "'All is data' is a well known Glaser dictum. What does it mean? It means exactly what is going on in the research scene is the data, whatever the source, whether interview, observations, documents, in whatever combination. It is not only what is being told, how it is being told and the conditions of its being told, but also all the data surrounding what is being told. It means what is going on must be figured out exactly what it is is to be used for, that is conceptualization, not for accurate description. Data is always as good as far as it goes, and there is always more data to keep correcting the categories with more relevant properties." (p.145) [1] "All is Data" data, interpreted data or vague data. There is no such thing for GT as bias data or subjective or objective data or misinterpreted data. It is what the researcher is receiving, as a pattern, and as a human being (which is inescapable). It just depends on the research. [2]
