요약	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.	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.
