Grounded theory is a qualitative research method that involves the systematic generation of theory from data that is systematically gathered and analyzed. This approach is distinct because it emphasizes the creation of theory through the process of collecting and analyzing data simultaneously, rather than starting with a preconceived hypothesis. The goal is to develop a theory that is grounded in the actual data collected from participants, making it relevant and reflective of real-world experiences.
