Grounded theory is a qualitative method that enables you to study a phenomenon and discover new theories that are based on the collection and analysis of real world data.
Unlike traditional hypothesis-deductive approaches of research, where you come up with a hypothesis and then try to prove/disprove it, grounded theory is an inductive approach where new theories are derived from the data.
The process of data collection, data analysis, and theory development happen in an iterative process. Iterative data collection and analysis occurs until you reach theoretical saturation, the point at which additional data adds no additional insight into your new theory.

In 5 minutes, this video has taught me more than my entire research methods course 👏🏼
So glad it was educational! 👩🎓
I totally agree with this comment! Excellent work!
@@Ninu9294 Thank you!
Fact
Indeed!
Finally, something that was easily understandable for a beginner like me. Great work!!
So glad it was helpful!
This video is so insanly good and helpful! We had several longer videos in our school to explain all the things you just explained in 5 minutes. Keep this up, its amazing!
So glad to hear that, if there are other topics that you’d like us to cover please let us know!
Das war ein tolles Video! Super erklärt und einfach verständlich! Dankeschön!
gerne geschehen! wir freuen uns, dass dir das Video gefallen hat.
Thank you for being so clear ! Helping me so much for my last university homework🙌
Of course! We are happy to help.
This video is SO informative. Thank you for being informative, concise and understandable. I tip my hat to you.
Awesome! Thank you!
I echo other's comments: your video put "simple language" in place of complex textbook language. Sincerely, thank you!
Thank you for watching!
What an amazing video! THANK YOU SO MUCH it is really well explained!!
So glad it was helpful!
Ok, firstly, the video is a very good and concise description of the grounded theory approach. Secondly, it's not perfect :)
What it misses or it's not clear enough (among hundreds of other details you can find in books or articles written by Glaser, Strauss, Corbin et al): the goal. Any grounded theory research have a goal - the core concept(s)/category is not the goal, neither is the theory - but what that theory try to explain, a phenomenon of prior interest for the researcher. Also, the process of coding for GT - it's not quite trivial and must be explained in detail, in another video maybe, together with the idea of circular research and constant comparison :)
A very good video, excellent for presenting this approach in a method class.... thank you :)
Thank you for your thoughtful feedback! 🙌 We genuinely appreciate it and hope to delve deeper into the details you mentioned in our future videos. We fully agree that our introductory video left out some intricacies of grounded theory, especially regarding the goal and the coding process. Your insights will certainly guide our upcoming content. Thanks again for helping us improve! 😊
We highly recommend that you check out our grounded theory blogpost where we go into more detail and have an extended video: delvetool.com/groundedtheory
thank you so much for the lesson. I have zero knowledge of the grounded theory but my teacher asked me present in the class. So, I came across your lesson and listen to it several times and planning to present it today in the class! thank you once again.
So glad it was helpful! You might also enjoy our practical guide to grounded theory: delvetool.com/groundedtheory
Good luck with your presentation!
@@DelveTool I did download the guide. Thank you so much.
Same story with me! Presentation is in 4 days!
@@curtistaylor6433 me too!
Thank you for making it so easy and clear.
You’re welcome!
Thank God there is some youtube channel which provides easy and clear understandable videos on psychology theories. This gonna really help us in upsc preparation.
We’re so glad you find our TH-cam channel helpful and clear!
@@DelveToolI have one request can you please make video on quasi experimental method and research
That’s so revelatory. I’m now fully equipped, just in 5 minutes
thankyou very much, it was very helpful for me to understand. I've been reading the textbook since past hour and this just worked like a charm!
You’re welcome! Glad you found the video helpful!
Thank you for your great method of teaching, finally I got it.Thanks.
Of course! Thank you for watching out video!
thank you for this great video. now i understand this methodology!
So glad it was helpful!
the best of all the lectures I went through TH-cam. than you!!
Thank you so much!
Really Thanks, it's very easy to understand.
Glad it was helpful!
Finally i understand it !! Well done!
Glad it was helpful!
Really helps me to understand what is Grounded theory. Thank you!!
You are so welcome!
Thank you very much, the visual really helps.❤❤
Glad to hear that! Thank you for watching.
If this channel was a school, i'd apply and probably get a free phD within a week.
The other option is overpaying tuition and wasting years, hoping your teachers are at least 5% as good as these videos.
It's a new day.
We're really glad you like our videos!
Wow ! This video is like an eye opener for a beginner like me.
So glad it was helpful!
Superb explaination ! Thank you so much .
Thanks! Glad it was helpful
Well, that was quite clear. Thank you for this!
Glad it was helpful!
It explains grounded theory in very easy way. Thanks!!!
Glad you think so!
Excellent and clear explanation! Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you it provide insight in short. Nice video
Thanks!
Thank You DELVE and Team for the Video, is very excellenT
Thank you for watching and for your kind words!
yes, i like ur video easier to understand, give us more detail about constructivist grounded theory and history behind it
Excellent!
Thank you!
Wow!!🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾♥️ just answered my assignment
Amazing!!
Excellent video.
Thank you!
great work, Thank you
You’re welcome!
Great video thank you and subscribed. I like how grounded theory is being renewed in post-qualitative approaches. In fact I've found the differences between grounded theory and post-qualitative methodologies are often few in practice and philosophy. I'm writing this comment because you might be interested in viewing your final theory as an 'entanglement, 'actor-network', 'situation', or 'arena' and other such ontologies of post-qualitative researchers which can be constructed through grounded theory.
Thank you very much for your explanation. Its very clear. Please share about coding paradigm in axial coding and how to implement it in an example. Thanks again.
We have an article on axial coding here: delvetool.com/blog/axialcoding
This is everything Thank you!
Of course! Thank you for watching.
what a precious five minute, thank you so much
Glad the video was helpful!
Simply awesome😮
Thank you! Cheers!
Thank you for the video! It was really helpful. Just a question, if in grounded theory you first collect data, analyze it, and then proceed to derive your theory, is a theoretical framework required before conducting a grounded theory research?
Glad you enjoyed the video! Grounded theory helps you derive new theories, so you do NOT need a theoretical framework before conducting grounded theory.
It was really a fantastic video explained GT in short time. Just a question, if we collect and analyse the data iteratively, then probably there would be some research question in our mind, so it's not a hypothesis?
¡Excelente explicación!
Thank you!
Thank you very much, very understandable
Thank you!
Thank you! Merci from France!
Of course!
I understand now! Thank you
You’re welcome!

So what about when doing a literature review in qualitative research?
This was ++ useful. Snaps for the creator!
Glad it was helpful!
Hi there, my professor mentioned grounded theory in terms of interactionism, saying that interactionism adopts grounded theory, and under grounded theory, she said "although many believe this is a qualitative method, it is not- it is a general method" and then stumbled upon this video-- the first definition really threw me off- is it or isnt it?!
We would certainly say that Grounded Theory is very popular as a qualitative method, and that's certainly how we use and discuss it ourselves.
But especially in the context of interactionism, I can see why your professor would say it's not an exclusively qualitative method. Though we would love to hear more!
is multi-criteria mapping a tool for grounded theory?
Not traditionally
But when do you stop the data collection/analysis? At what point do you finally make a theory?
Great question! You stop data collection and analysis once you reach theoretical saturation: delvetool.com/blog/theoreticalsaturation
Hi, I am trying to find out whether there is change in the information needs of the investors and for this i am analyzing interviews and based on it i will come to conclusion, can this be called grounded theory? ❤ help !
If you follow the steps in the video it certainly could be grounded theory. A key part is that you are alternating between interviewing and analysis.
Great
Thanks!
How many participants do we need for grounded theory research?
Thanks for your question! In grounded theory you keep recruiting and interviewing people until you hit theoretical saturation. Theoretical saturation is the point at which a researcher has collected enough data and conducted enough analysis to feel confident that they have identified all of the relevant categories in their data. In grounded theory research, the number of participants needed for theoretical saturation varies depending on the type of data being collected and the complexity of the phenomenon being studied. You can read more about it here: delvetool.com/blog/theoreticalsaturation
Thanks alot for the satisfactory answer. During the lecture you talked about generalizability but in phenomenology people give their own subjective experiences which might not be similar how can we generalize peoples experience situation to other people's experiences. Please give an example on how this happens.
I’m glad that you found our answer satisfactory. The original grounded theory was developed based on the assumption that people perceive the world differently, so there is no fundamental conflict with the idea that people provide their subjective experience. Grounded theory does not assume that all people will experience a phenomenon in the same way, and often times those conflicts in experience will help you build a richer theory. I recommend reading our article on Constant Comparison Method to learn how to analyze interviews that may conflict with your developing theory: delvetool.com/blog/ccm
perfect.
Thank you!
Can I ask why grounded theory is presented only as a qualitative methodology here? There are many established studies that use ground theory methodology, that employ quant research methods/data sets. Why do you think that grounded theory only uses qualitative methods and data?
We cover here the Grounded Theory originally developed by sociologist Glaser and Strauss which is a qualitative approach. We are also a TH-cam channel about qualitative analysis, so we tend to cover primarily qualitative approaches. Though we would love to read a study that uses the type of grounded theory that you are describing. Feel free to send it over!
@@DelveTool I can send over a study, but it is not rare to see grounded theory which works with quantative data. It is worth noting I think, that often the methodology is mixed method and employs both qual and quant methods. I'm sure you've probably read this anyway but this is a best practice framework for grounded theory methodology: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6318722/. "A hallmark of GT is concurrent data generation/collection and analysis. In GT, researchers may utilise both qualitative and quantitative data as espoused by Glaser’s dictum; ‘all is data’".

Thank You Very Much ....🙏🙏🙏
Without statistical inference, what make the theory reliable?
Great question! Statistical inference, which is used to infer properties of a population based on statistics, is not appropriate for grounded theory. Instead Grounded theory’s purpose is to describe phenomena, and provide rich and deep analysis. To ensure your grounded theory is sound, do iterative data collection and analysis using theoretical sampling until you reach theoretical saturation. You can read more about this process here: delvetool.com/blog/theoretical-sampling.
what is a code?
A qualitative code is a label used in qualitative research to categorize and identify themes, patterns, or concepts within textual data. These codes help researchers systematically analyze and interpret non-numerical data, such as interviews, observations, or documents, to extract meaningful insights.
Do we interview the same people?
There's nothing in Grounded Theory that says you can't interview the same people more than once. But generally when you are doing more theoretical sampling, you'll be recruiting different people based on your evolving analysis
