Grounded Theory Methodology

Abstract: Grounded theory methodology is one of the most widely used approaches to collect and analyze data within qualitative research. It can be characterized as a framework for study design, data collection, and analysis, which aims at the development of middle-range theories. The final result of such a study is called a “grounded theory,” and it consists of categories that are related to each other. Health and risk message design researchers working with grounded theory methodology are explicitly invi… Show more

“…Within this study the sample was younger than typical post-MI patients thus limiting the generalisability of the results. Theoretical sampling whereby data collection and analysis occur simultaneously to guide subsequent recruitment could have been used [ 31 ]. The depth of the data presented could be further expanded by further recruitment and interviews, and by incorporating multiple methods of data collection such as focus groups which would have allowed for participant-led discussion about the variation in post-MI support and CR services.…”

“…In analyzing the autobiographical narratives and accounts, I used approaches borrowed from grounded theory methodology (for a short overview see Ruppel and Mey 2017 ) and inspired by relational hermeneutics (Straub 2006 ). Based on the sequential analysis of single cases and the establishment of conceptual ideas across cases, I provide preliminary conceptualizations and answers to the question how sustainability-oriented individuals cope with the supposed contradiction between a heightened awareness of climate change and increasing aeromobility.…”
