Grounded Theory Research

Grounded Theory as a method / research study is a study to generate or develop theory. The theory was developed from situations, special events related. The situation includes a time when someone interact, take action, or reacting to a phenomenon.

Here is more about Grounded Theory Research

Research Focus

What theories can explain the experience of the subject of a phenomenon?
  • What are the subjects experienced?
  • What causes the occurrence of that experience? Why are feelings associated with experiences that come from?
  • What strategies used by subjects to face or live event?
  • What happens due to the use of these strategies?
  • What are the specific factors and the broader factors that influence action strategies are they doing?
Data collection
  • Interviews with 20-30 individuals to 'mensaturasikan' category and refine the theory.
  • Participant observation
  • Documents
Data Analysis
Open coding:- Collecting data
- Dimensionalisasi
  • Establish the categories beginning -> segmentation information.
  • Data is sorted into a number of dimensions.
- At this stage, researchers must go back and forth to collect the data, so that the data reaches a state of "saturation", in the sense of "all information" has been unearthed.

Axial coding:
- Arrange the data in new ways,
- Focusing on each category and see it in the database as a whole, to identify:
  • What is causing the phenomenon occurred (causal conditions),
  • What strategies or actions subject in response to that phenomenon,
  • Context and conditions that affect the earlier strategy,
  • What the consequences as a result of that strategy.
  • Researchers find connection / interconnection between one category / dimension to the category / other dimensions.
Selective coding:
- Explain the central phenomena in a systematic and link it to other categories,
- Develop a hypothesis or theoretical proposition.

Conditional matrix:
- Develop a visual portrait of the phenomenon in the form of matrix,
- Explain the social condition, history, economy affecting these phenomena under study.
- Developing a coding paradigm, which raises theoretical model that describes the relationship between these categories visually.
