Grounded Theory for a Doctoral Thesis: Retrospective and Prospective Insights
Abstract
The chapter transverses Grounded theory (GT) from its inception to the development of numerous strands which include Glasier and Strauss, Glaserian and Straussian versions, and Charmaz social constructivist among many others. The ontology and epistemology underpinning the diverse strands are scrutinized and insights are provided. The application of GT in doctoral study is discussed with a special focus on human social interactions and the attendant complex and nuanced nature of interactions. The chapter also highlights the challenges and prospects of using GT in doctoral research. The chapter is underpinned paradigmatically by knowledge situatedness and social constructionism.
