When cases are selected by emerging theoretical considerations and repeated, this is known as ___________________.
A) Grounded theory
B) Theoretical sampling
C) Exiting the field
D) Theoretical saturation

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The process of selecting cases based on emerging theories and repeating this process is known as theoretical sampling. Grounded theory refers to the process of generating theories from the data collected, while exiting the field refers to the researchers' withdrawal from the study. Theoretical saturation occurs when the data collected is sufficient to support or refute the emerging theoretical concepts.
