Sorting
Main Article Content
Abstract
For some novice Glaserian classic grounded theorists, sorting memos creates great internal confusion because the process seems never-ending. But sorting is a vital component to the design as it helps the researcher slowly discover the emergent theory. The process takes time and a researcher must not try to rush this process; the theory will develop in due course. In this article, the author presents a simple example of sorting and shows how the process develops.
