Grounded Theory Unbound ARU GT Network

In today’s episode, I am joined by co-host Dr Hilary Engward. Together, we are talking to Dr David Morgan . David is a professor emeritus in the Department of Sociology at Portland State University. He is a sociological social psychologist, who is widely known for his work on focus groups, and started his grounded theory journey during his PhD research. More recently, David published the paper “Exploring the Use of Artificial Intelligence for Qualitative Data Analysis: The Case of ChatGPT” in the International Journal of Qualitative Methods. . The use of AI in research, and specifically in qualitative research, is a hot topic at the moment, and will become more and more significant as time moves on. For this reason David’s paper fascinated me, and led me to invite David to the podcast.

In today’s episode, I am talking to two of the leading lights of contemporary Grounded Theory, Prof Melanie Birks and Professor Jane Mills. Melanie is Professor of Nursing and Midwifery and James Cook University in Australia, Jane is Pro Vice Chancellor Health Innovation (Regional) and Dean, La Trobe Rural Health School at Latrobe University in Australia. Together, Melanie and Jane are most famous for their excellent book Grounded Theory – a practical guide. Their book is has recently been released in its third edition, and Melanie and Jane have now also launched an online training course in grounded theory. Because of these developments, I invited them to the podcast to discuss aspects of developing as a grounded theorist.
