Question

Goals, methods and steps of grounded theory

Answer 1

Answer:

The aim of grounded theory is to develop a theory that is “grounded” in the lived experience of the studied process or action, and therefore is tailored to the research object. Because the result of grounded theory is a theory, the research process itself cannot be based on a theoretical perspective.

Explanation:

The main steps in using MAXQDA to analyze qualitative data based on the grounded theory methodology are what we call the '4 Cs':

• coding the data,

• customizing the Code System,

• category building with Creative Coding, and.

• constructing theories with MAXMaps.
