Resumé	Digital Constructivist Grounded Theory (Digital CGT) applies Kathy Charmaz's constructivist variant of grounded theory to data generated in digital environments — social media platforms, online communities, forums, digital interviews, and other internet-mediated spaces. It treats meaning as co-constructed between researcher and participant in digitally-mediated contexts, and generates theory grounded in how people make sense of experience through and within digital life.	Digital Grounded Theory applies the systematic inductive logic of grounded theory to data gathered from digital and online environments — social media platforms, forums, blogs, comment sections, and other internet-mediated communication. Rather than simply using grounded theory on text that happens to come from digital sources, it involves adapting sampling, collection, and ethical procedures to the specific affordances and constraints of online data, while retaining the core commitment to theory generation grounded in empirical material.
