Discussion

A qualitative strategy in which the researcher derives an abstract theory of process, action or Interaction grounded in the views of participants in the study is called as :

  • A.Ethnography
  • B.Experimental research design
  • C.Grounded theory
  • D.Triangulation method

Answer: C

The strategy is grounded theory.

Grounded theory, developed by Barney Glaser and Anselm Strauss in 1967, is a qualitative design in which the researcher builds a general, abstract theory of a process, action or interaction from data collected from participants, by coding and constantly comparing it, instead of starting from a theory and testing it.

Ethnography describes the shared patterns of a cultural group through long field immersion rather than generating a process theory. An experimental design is quantitative, testing cause and effect under control. Triangulation is the use of several methods or data sources to check findings, not a strategy for building theory.
