Σύνοψη	Interpretive constructivist grounded theory is a qualitative research design in which the researcher and participants are understood as jointly constructing meaning, and theory is built inductively from data through systematic comparative analysis. Developed by Kathy Charmaz as a departure from the positivist assumptions of classic grounded theory, this approach situates both the researcher and participants as active interpreters whose social positions, values, and interactions shape the categories and theory that emerge from the study.	Constructivist Grounded Theory (CGT) is a qualitative methodology developed by Kathy Charmaz that systematically builds mid-range theory from empirical data through iterative coding, memo-writing, and theoretical sampling. Unlike the original objectivist version by Glaser and Strauss, CGT treats both data and theory as co-constructed between researcher and participants, acknowledging the researcher's interpretive perspective as an integral part of the analytic process rather than a source of bias to be eliminated.
