The Varieties of Grounded Theory
The Varieties of Grounded Theory explores the range and depth of grounded theory methodology, and the ways in which discussions in the field have developed and expanded in recent years. In this SAGE Swift, Anthony Bryant provides a jargon-free overview of grounded theory terminology, whilst examining the impact of recent technological and theoretical advances on how it is currently practiced. Increasingly popular outside of its original settings, grounded theory is now a core method for business & management, criminology, politics, geography and psychology. This book provides a global interdisciplinary perspective on the method′s utility today, and complements The SAGE Handbook of Current Developments in Grounded Theory (April 2019).
Grounded Theory and Grounded Theorizing
The grounded theory method is founded on a view of analysis whereby the research questions and potential hypotheses are not articulated at the outset; rather, the researcher initially seeks to gain familiarity with a research context, and only in later stages does the process become progressively more focused and targeted. As such, the grounded theory method uses familiar research tools and techniques (coding, sampling, classification) but in distinctive and innovative ways. As a result, the method is one of the most widely used-if not the most widely used-method in current qualitative research. Initially aimed at the social sciences, the grounded theory method has now spread so far that it ...
The SAGE Handbook of Grounded Theory
Grounded Theory is by far the most widely used research method across a wide range of disciplines and subject areas, including social sciences, nursing and healthcare, medical sociology, information systems, psychology, and anthropology. This handbook gives a comprehensive overview of the theory and practice of Grounded Theory, taking into account the many attempts to revise and refine Glaser and Strauss′ original formulation and the debates that have followed. Antony Bryant & Kathy Charmaz bring together leading researchers and practitioners of the method from the US, the UK, Australia and Europe to represent all the major standpoints within Grounded Theory, demonstrating the richness of the approach. The contributions cover a wide range of perspectives on the method, covering its features and ramifications, its intricacies in use, its demands on the skills and capabilities of the researcher and its position in the domain of research methods. The SAGE Handbook of Grounded Theory is an indispensable reference source for academics and researchers across many disciplines who want to develop their understanding of the Grounded Theory method.
Festschrift in Honour of Kathy Charmaz
This Festschrift to honour Kathy Charmaz’s scholarship features fourteen chapters plus an editors’ introduction, exploring CGT extensively, examining topics including “Indigenization” of the method, its approaches to decolonizing research, uses of CGT in social justice research, and the legacies of Kathy Charmaz’s remarkable mentorship.

Leading Issues in Business Research Methods
Published by Academic-Publishing International in 2011. This is a collection of 11 important Research Methodology Papers which will be of particular value to those who have a dissertation to write be it for an undergraduate degree, for a masters or even a doctorate. In addition the book has much to offer academic supervisors. The papers here are reproduced from those published in the Electronic Journal of Business Research Methods (www.ejbrm.com).
Digital and Other Virtualities
From different domains of technologies and philosophy, the concept of virtuality is emerging as a major field for the rethinking of time, space, bodies, meanings and, significantly, the image. Digitalization and cyber-networking form one axis. If the virtual is being celebrated as heralding a radically new era, rich with new possibilities and futures hitherto unimagined through cybernetics, networking and digitalization, such claims are also being viewed with deep scepticism and countered by renewed interest in the groundedness and referentiality of the indexical. Because of digital virtualities in the production of images, the concept of the index becomes relevant precisely in a digital world, as relations between signs, objects, references and bodies become the focus of sometimes anguished and sometimes enthralled critical rethinking. --
The SAGE Handbook of Current Developments in Grounded Theory
Extensively updated and with eight new chapters, this remains the definitive resource on Grounded Theory for advanced students and researchers across the social sciences.
Spoilt for Choice: How senior managers select professional advisors
How do senior executives, such as CEOs and CFOs, interact, select and appoint professional advisors? Based on a successful PhD project, the research in this book explores the interactions between advisors of large professional service firms and senior executive clients on an evidence-based academic level. The research journey and the author’s reflections are charted step-by-step, providing an example of how to analyse unstructured qualitative data, reach theoretical saturation and capture emerging substantive theories. Moreover, by taking a unique holistic and inductive approach, this study offers a series of practical insights on how to combine and apply Kathy Charmaz’ constructivist gr...
Methods Integration
The Methods Integration Workshop, held in Leeds in March 1996, had three main aims: to promote research into, and use of, software development methods which combine the use of formal methods with other heuristic or semiformal methods; to evaluate integrated methods in the light of current practice; and to discuss future research directions. The papers cover a range of issues in methods integration, including: data modelling in ZIM; integrated formal and object-oriented methods; CASE support for methods integration; and mapping object diagrams into B specifications. The full papers from the Methods Integration Workshop are available on-line at: http://www.springer.co.uk/eWiC/Workshops/MI96.html This booklet provides the passwords needed to access the web site.
