Explain the method, steps, relevance and implications of grounded theory. Describe the types of coding in grounded theory

METHODS OF GROUNDED THEORY
Unlike other methods of qualitative research, the grounded theorists do not believe in collecting data through taping and transcribing interviews as it is  believed to  be a waste of time in grounded theories. The process of grounded theories is farquick and faster as the researcher delimits the data by field-noting interviews and soon after generates concepts that fit with data, are relevant and work inexplaining what participants are doing to resolve their main concern.

Discussing about the theory before it is written up drains the researcher of motivational energy. Discussions and talks can either render praise or criticism,and both diminish the motivational drive to write memos that develop and refinethe concepts and the theory (Glaser, 1998). Data is a  fundamental property of the grounded theory which means that everything that gets in the researcher’s way when studying a certain area is data. Not only  interviews or observations but anything is data that helps the researcher generating concepts for the emerging  theory. Field notes can come from  informal interviews, lectures, seminars, expert   group meetings, newspaper articles, Internet mail lists, even television shows,  conversations with  friends etc. It is even possible, and sometimes a good idea,  for a researcher with much knowledge in the studied area to interview own self,  treating that  interview like any other data, coding and comparing it to other data  and generating concepts from it. Interviewing one’s own self helps in gaining an  insight from the knowledge that the researcher has at the conceptual level and  grounded theory deals with nothing but the conceptual level data.

STEPS OF GROUNDED THEORY
Grounded theory approach helps in generating theories on the basis of the  following systematic steps –
