This short, easy to read introduction to grounded theory will help you to employ the method in your research project. Uwe Flick discusses each stage of the process of doing grounded theory research, including formulating a research question through analysis of data, theoretical sampling, sorting and saturation, data collection, coding and forming theories from data.

Chapter objectives
After reading this chapter, you should know about:
- the contribution that a stronger recognition of designing research could make to doing grounded theory research;
- how research designs can help to make grounded theory research less tied to the researchers’ intuition;
- the basic designs that could be used in grounded theory; and
- the components of research designs that are relevant in grounded theory research.
Introduction
In the preceding chapters, an outline of the various versions of grounded theory research that are currently existing side by side or in competition has been given. If we regard these versions as the state of the art in grounded theory methodology, from the perspective of doing grounded theory and in particular from that of someone trying to ...
