Field-based Straussian Grounded Theory
Field-based Straussian grounded theory applies the systematic coding procedures of Strauss and Corbin's grounded theory tradition to data generated through sustained fieldwork — direct observation, ethnographic notes, informal conversations, and artefact collection — rather than relying solely on formal interviews. The goal is to generate a substantive theory that is firmly anchored in the natural social setting where the phenomenon occurs, capturing both interaction and context.
