Σύνοψη	Interpretive institutional ethnography (IIE) is a qualitative research design that combines Dorothy Smith's institutional ethnography — which maps how institutional texts and social relations coordinate everyday life — with an explicitly interpretive, meaning-centered stance. Rather than stopping at describing ruling relations, the researcher asks what those relations mean to people embedded in them and how participants actively interpret institutional demands and texts in their lived experience.	Grounded Theory (GT) is a systematic qualitative research methodology in which theory emerges directly from data through iterative analysis, rather than being imposed before data collection. Developed by Barney Glaser and Anselm Strauss in 1967, GT prioritizes generating explanatory frameworks grounded in evidence.
