“Unfortunately, these issues were not really developed in a concerted manner by STRAUSS in his key GTM writings; an observation that STRÜBING himself makes (2007).”
From Grounded Theory and Pragmatism: The Curious Case of Anselm Strauss (2009) · cites this paper as STRÜBING (2007)
In the citing paper
“As STRÜBING (2007) argues, citing JAMES and MEAD, for Pragmatists reality is something that is always in the making, and data is something that social actors "carve out" from reality; an activity that is socially located, not simply an individual, isolated accomplishment.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
