@francismusoniok @charlesgava_256 This is where the Grounded Theory methodology has led me. Theoretical sampling hasn’t yet reached saturation —new insights keep emerging—and some data sources can yap. And now, I’ve been asked to return to the field—Mubende to check the new data leads.

This got me laughing this morning… @francismusoniok @charlesgava_256 🤣🤣🤣

Advanced coding can draw on external data sources such as book & journal articles, but their use differs during advanced coding than during theoretical integration. Find out how in the latest post of The Grounded Theorist at thegroundedtheorist.wordpress.com/2025/03/26/adv…

An often talked about but rarely defined aspect of grounded theory studies, what is explanatory power? At The Grounded Theorist I breakdown the concepts inherent in the term explanatory power, explain what it is, & when & how it is achieved: thegroundedtheorist.wordpress.com/2025/02/26/exp…
