“…Finally, and in keeping with a rising conversation around the trustworthiness of qualitative research (Lincoln and Guba, 1985; Pratt et al, 2020a; Reinhardt et al, 2018; Yin, 2003), we argue that tables are useful devices to help ensure—and reassure—readers about the trustworthiness of their research process and the robustness of the data backing the conclusions they draw. By trustworthiness, we mean “the degree to which the reader can assess whether the researchers have been honest in how the research has been carried out and reasonable in the conclusions they make” (Pratt et al, 2020a: 2).…”

“…Figure 1 summarizes the different functions of tables as they might be used throughout the research process. In Table 3, we summarize the ways in which each type of table enhances trustworthiness in the research process itself—that is, confidence that the researcher has followed rigorous procedures to collect and analyze data (see Reinhardt et al, 2018) and presented them in an “honest” and transparent way (Pratt et al, 2020a)—and trustworthiness in a study’s conclusions—that is confidence that the researcher’s interpretations are “reasonable” (Pratt et al, 2020a), plausible, and grounded in robust empirical evidence.…”

In this essay, we discuss how tables can be used to ensure—and reassure about—trustworthiness in qualitative research. We posit that in qualitative research, tables help not only increase transparency about data collection, analysis, and findings, but also—and no less importantly—organize and analyze data effectively. We present some of the tables most frequently used by qualitative researchers, explain their uses, discuss how they enhance trustworthiness, and provide illustrative examples to inspire readers in their use of tables in their own research.

“…The difference, however, is their route towards theory-building and what they focus on as the theory that is produced. For the formal-analytical approaches, there is then a further difference between the inductive Gioia approach and the abductive approach suggested by Kreiner and colleagues (see Murphy et al, 2017;Reinhardt et al, 2018). The Gioia approach advocates an inductive 'tabula rasa' (clean slate) approach where researchers are led by the data and by informant-centric labels and terms before they make any conceptual abstractions.…”

“…Second, we draw out different ways in which qualitative methods can provide a theoretical contribution; by building theory, elaborating theory, and qualifying theory. Here, we stress a variety of aims and contributions for qualitative research over and beyond inductive theory-building which is often seen as the prototype of a qualitative research contribution (Reinhardt et al, 2018).…”

This editorial aims to advance the use of qualitative research methods when studying entrepreneurship. First, it outlines four characteristics of the domain of entrepreneurship that qualitative research is uniquely placed to address. In studying these characteristics, we urge researchers to leverage the plurality of different qualitative approaches, including less conventional methods. Second, to help researchers develop high-level theoretical contributions, we point to multiple possible contributions, and highlight how such contributions can be developed through qualitative methods. Thus, we aim to broaden the types of contributions and forms that qualitative entrepreneurship research takes, in ways that move beyond prototypical inductive theory-building.

“…In this stage, the researcher can have “a clear sense of the developing relationships among categories and their related themes” (Gioia et al, 2010, p. 8). The aggregate dimensions become, then, the core elements of the emerging grounded theory (Langley & Abdallah, 2011; Rheinhardt, Kreiner, Gioia, & Corley, 2018).…”

Purpose This study aims to present a guide for using grounded theory methods for exploring organizational phenomena of the new online era. Design/methodology/approach A reflexive account is adopted on how one can build upon the foundations of traditional offline grounded theory for conducting grounded theorizing with online-based data. Findings Guidelines for conducting grounded theory on online contexts are presented for crafting research questions, gathering online data and using consolidated methods for analyzing online data. This study shows future and present challenges posed by the new online era for grounded theorizing, as well as helpful lessons to be learned from traditional offline grounded theory to mitigate them. Research limitations/implications The implications are helpful for established qualitative organizational scholars that are yet to catch-up in the boundary spanning process of using the digital sources of data in grounded theory. They are equally helpful for newcomers on qualitative grounded theory by guiding them on where and how to start these challenging research endeavors of grounded theorizing in this new online era. Originality/value Scant attention has been given on applications of grounded theory in the new online era. The differences between online and offline settings have not been clearly defined to this date, and neither do guidelines exist for how qualitative grounded theorists can take advantage of online data to build theory about new organizational phenomena emerging in the online era.
