title: Analysing data using grounded theory.
abstract: Grounded theory is a systematic research approach for the collection and analysis of qualitative data. The aim of the grounded theory approach is to generate an explanatory theory from the data being analysed, rather than trying to 'fit' the data into an existing theoretical framework ( 1 , 2 ).
