Abstract
To present the validation of a theoretical model through conversation circles in a qualitative research guided by the Grounded Theory. Study carried out from a thesis developed in a reference hospital in the south region of Brazil. Two conversation circles happened, with participation of representatives of the "Training Prism", in the months of October and November, 2016. The conversation circle enabled an in depth dialogic approach of the subject of research, broadening the vision on the phenomenon and on the research. The circle also mobilized thinking as it highlighted the subjectivity of individuals, expanding the group's ability of understanding and assisting in the validation process of a theoretical model. The conversation circle emerges as a powerful strategy for the development of qualitative research in nursing, more specifically in the validation step of the Grounded Theory.
Highlights
Data-grounded theory and the purposes of qualitative research in nursing The Grounded Theory (GT) enables the understanding of a research phenomenon from the reality in which it manifests through a thorough comparative analysis of the data and concepts that give rise to a theory
In the context of qualitative research in nursing and health, GT has gained prominence as a method that enables the understanding of experiences, meanings, and interactions among individuals inserted in a given context
This paper aimed to present the validation of a theoretical model through conversation circles in a qualitative research guided by the GT
Summary
Data-grounded theory and the purposes of qualitative research in nursing The Grounded Theory (GT) enables the understanding of a research phenomenon from the reality in which it manifests through a thorough comparative analysis of the data and concepts that give rise to a theory. In the 1960s, until today, GT, as a research method, has developed by three main methodological perspectives: classical, relativistic or subjectivist, and constructivist Each of these approaches presents specific characteristics that enable different operation modes, based on its own epistemological concepts and paradigms, resulting from the evolution of the process of construction of scientific knowledge(1,3). The presentation of new research strategies to the scientific community, regarding methodological paths and production of empirical data, is an integral part of the work of a researcher(6) Given these prerogatives, this paper aimed to present the validation of a theoretical model through conversation circles in a qualitative research guided by the GT
