Choosing between Glaser and Strauss: an example: Adeline Cooney looks at the reasons for choosing either Glaserian or Straussian grounded theory when conducting research and why she made her choice in a recent study
Abstract
Choosing between Glaserian and Straussian grounded theory when selecting a methodological approach can be challenging, but few papers consider this decision-making process. This paper explores the Glaser-Strauss debate using an example of a study which explored whether older people experience a sense of home in residential settings.

“In addition, SGT offers numerous tools to assist with data analysis, such as the coding paradigm to guide the construction of theory and the conditional/consequential matrix to elucidate broad contextual factors (Cooney, 2010; Howard‐Payne, 2016).”

In the citing paper
“CGT and SGT procedures are more clearly defined than those of CGGT in the seminal texts and may be more user‐friendly for a novice researcher (Cooney, 2010).”

“However, the coding paradigm can also become cumbersome if it does not fit the data (Bryant & Charmaz, 2007a; Cooney, 2010; Evans, 2013).”

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.
