Grounded theory (GT) is both a research method and a research methodology. There are several different ways of doing GT which reflect the different viewpoints of the originators. For those who are new to this approach to conducting qualitative research, this can be confusing. In this article, we outline the key characteristics of GT and describe the role of the literature review in three common GT approaches, illustrated using exemplar studies.
扎根理论（GT）既是一种研究方法，也是一种研究方法论。有几种不同的方法可以进行 GT，这些方法反映了创始人的不同观点。对于那些刚开始使用这种方法进行定性研究的人来说，这可能会令人困惑。在本文中，我们概述了 GT 的关键特征，并描述了文献综述在三种常见 GT 方法中的作用，使用范例研究进行了说明。
