“…Strauss, in partnership with Juliet Corbin, incorporated new instruments of analysis and stages for developing the theory, founding the Straussian or relativist perspective of GT. In the 2000s, Glaser's former student Katy Charmaz introduced her own version of GT, starting the constructivist perspective of the method (1,3,5,(7)(8) .…”

“…Thus, it is considered that the three main methodological perspectives of GT are: classic, straussian and constructivist. The constitution of these different approaches of GT mainly occurred as a result of evolving scientific thought and the paradigms that guide qualitative research (1,3,(7)(8) . One of the main differences between them is the data analysis system, which brings particularities according to each methodological perspective.…”

Grounded Theory (GT) has undergone many transformations since its proposition as a research method in the 1960s. As a result of these changes, three different GT approaches have been outlined: classic, straussian and constructivist ground theory, each with its peculiarities, but mainly concerning data analysis. Thus, this study aimed to describe and compare the data analysis process adopted by the different methodological perspectives of GT. The text is organized into two topics. Firstly, we present the common and differentiating characteristics of the three methodological perspectives of GT. In sequence, the data analysis system adopted in each of the GT methodological perspectives is described and exemplified, varying between two and three stages, and may or may not include the use of the paradigmatic model. Thus, this study provides support for understanding the different data analysis systems adopted in GT, which may contribute to the rigor and scientific quality of nursing research adopting this method.

“…2,[18][19]26 Regarding the methodological aspect of GT, the use of the Straussian perspective and the works of Strauss and Corbin were highlighted as methodological references, corroborating findings from previous studies on the use of GT in nursing research. 5,14 The predominance of this strand may be related to its more didactic and systematic character in relation to other GT approaches, as Strauss and Corbin sought to make the method more accessible by establishing steps to develop a theory. In addition, Corbin's academic background in nursing may also have contributed to the spread of his work in the field.…”

“…In addition, Corbin's academic background in nursing may also have contributed to the spread of his work in the field. 14 In general, most articles did not adopt a theoretical framework, which suggests the use of GT as a theoretical-methodological framework. 18 Among the studies that used a specific theoretical framework, Symbolic Interactionism is highlighted, which is based on how the individual situates and differentiates himself from others 19 , confirming an important methodological tradition and findings from a previous study.…”

Objective: to analyze the use of Grounded Theory as a methodological framework in scientific articles published in Brazilian Nursing journals with Qualis Capes A1 and A2. Method: descriptive, documentary study with a quantitative approach. Five Brazilian nursing journals with Qualis A1 and A2 in the 2016 assessment were used as sources. Data were collected on the website of each journal through the Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO), by consulting the numbers published in the 2013-2016 quadrennium. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. Results: 49 articles were selected, most of them published by the Texto & Contexto Enfermagem journal (34.6%). Regarding the methodological aspect, the use of the Straussian perspective predominated (79,6). Regarding the methodological characteristics, most articles used theoretical sampling (63.3%), theoretical saturation (53.1%), comparative analysis (69.4%), and presented the development of a theoretical model or central category in the results (75.6%). However, only seven (14.3%) studies specified the use of memos, 22 (44.9%) mentioned the use of diagrams and 16 (32.7%) described the theory validation step. Conclusion: the need for consensus among Brazilian nursing researchers on the methodological characteristics to be described in studies using the Grounded Theory is highlighted.

“…They were carried out at the premises of the clinic, or sometimes at a nearby psychiatric outpatient's clinic where the first author (KHW) also worked clinically. The interviewees were asked broad, open-ended questions and allowed to tell their stories [28]. In order to explore the processes concerning young people seeking and utilizing support, themes of interest were: perceived barriers and facilitators for seeking support, self-image and identity, resources and competence as well as views on organization and the support given.…”

Lost in space - an exploration of help-seeking among young people with mental health problems: a constructivist grounded theory study

et al. 2020

Background Mental health problems among young people is a worldwide public health concern. There has been an increase in mental health problems among young people in the Nordic countries in the last 25 years, particularly in Sweden. Despite this increase, international research has repeatedly shown that young people do not access or receive support when encountering mental health problems. The purpose of this study was to explore the process of help-seeking for professional support among young people with mental health problems. Methods The study used qualitative constructivist Grounded Theory and open-ended interviews. Thirteen young people between 15 and 23, recruited from two local support clinics, were interviewed. Results Lost in space emerged as the core category, capturing aspects of both the experience of self and mental health problems as well as the process of seeking and acquiring help from professional support systems. The study identified several prominent barriers for seeking and acquiring professional help for mental health problems. The young people expressed a lack of knowledge on mental health issues and support services and substantial efforts were made to try to cope with problems on one’s own. Lost in space involved Drifting - trying to make sense of own experiences and struggling to cope with problems, Navigating - searching for help through multiple attempts and contacts and Docking - finding support with something/somebody that feels right. Conclusions The theoretical model sheds light on how young people with mental health problems were met with fragmented support services. Society needs to provide encompassing, youth-friendly and flexible support services, so that attempts at help-seeking are not missed.
