This study explores the divergence of grounded theory focused on the differences of Glaser and Strauss. Grounded theory has been divided into two versions, Glaser version and Strauss version. Two versions are different in research methodology. Therefore, it is important for us to choose one of these two version. There are many grounded theory researches or qualitative researches by grounded theory approach in Korea. But Theses researches has been studied only Strauss version. Therefore this article introduces the differences of Glaser method and Strauss method in various aspects of research methods: basic logic of research process, core category and basic social process, and coding methods - especially axial coding, selective coding and theoretical coding. Glaser and Strauss argued differently in many aspects of grounded theory method.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to analyze the current state of grounded theory methodology in Korea information systems studies and to suggest its application strategies. Design/methodology/approach After reviewing previous studies, this study reviewed 16 papers which adopted grounded theory methodology and analyzed these papers by two ways, research contents and methods adopted from grounded theory methodology: Main characteristics in grounded theory methodology are selected as main criteria in analysis such as data collection method, constant comparison, software use, coding ways, suggested model, proposition suggestion etc., while subject, theory/practice orientation, and role of prior knowledge are included in research contents. Findings Based on the review and analysis, this paper suggested four guidelines for adopting grounded theory methodology to information systems research in Korea: First, division of research methodology into stages. Second, explicit documentation of research process. Third, pursuit of diversity in research topics. Fourth, strengthening scale up and theoretical integration.

The family as a social institution has survived most diverse political periods and appears resilient or at least able to reconstitute itself even in the aftermath of destructive events such as wars. Age at first marriage is one possibility to systematize the strategies that families follow in times of internal conflicts (e.g., civil wars), external interventions or peaceful times. The authors found that age at first marriage correlates with socio-political events whereas perceptions of insecurity lead to a decline in marital age. This paper is based on three case studies that the authors have conducted through ethnographic methods among Tajiks in the cities Kulob, Khujand, and Mazar-e Sharif in Tajikistan and Afghanistan. Combining Grounded Theory with the genealogical methods from social anthropology in order to generate demographic data, the authors introduce the method of grounded demography as a way to generate demographic data through ethnographic methods. Grounded demography offers a way to produce statistical data grounded in ethnographic research.

Purpose: This study aimed to introduce and elucidate changes in Strauss and Corbin's grounded theory and discuss its application to the field of nursing in South Korea. Methods: The changes in grounded theory by Strauss and Corbin were examined through a literature review of grounded theory from its inception. Results: Strauss and Corbin acknowledged their philosophical backgrounds of symbolic interactionism and pragmatism; however, their methodology based on positivism overwhelmed their epistemology and ontology. This inconsistency has been represented by the coding paradigm and the premise of "emergent from the data." In the revised version of Basics, Strauss and Corbin modified their theory to weaken the coding paradigm and strengthen the strategies for the development of substantive theory. Conclusion: Strauss and Corbin's revised grounded theory did not fully address the inconsistency of their epistemology and ontology between their acknowledgement and methodology. However, these changes constitute a meaningful step toward resolving inconsistencies and highlight the development of substantive theory. This has implications for Korean nursing researchers who have utilized methodologies in grounded theory with dogmatic approaches; grounded theory, with its evolving nature, is not a finalized method and calls for open approaches for the development of a grounded theory that fits Korean nursing.

The purpose of this study is to find out how construction sites workers experience adaptation processes in relation to the prevention of safety accidents in the workplace through the method of grounded theory. In order to understand the experience of preventing safety accidents of workers at construction sites, a grounded theory analysis method was chosen. In order to achieve the purpose of this study, the first questionnaire was sent to 17 people working in the construction site by e-mail, and the participants of the study were met one by one for in-depth interviews. As a result of this study, the paradigm model of the experience of preventing safety accidents of workers at construction sites was classified into causal conditions, contextual conditions, central phenomena, intervening conditions, action/interactions, and outcomes. The conclusions of this study are as follows. First, forming a safety culture that can improve the safety awareness of construction sites is a priority. Second, it is necessary to improve self-management capabilities so that construction workers can accurately diagnose their current state such as their own body, emotion, and cognition and provide appropriate safety education. Third, providing safety education for construction workers with negative thoughts or distorted beliefs about safety accidents needs to include psychological treatment and counseling, such as methods of emotional purification, methods of relieving and managing stress, and methods of removing trauma.

As users' cross-over shopping behaviors become more popular, many studies have attempted to describe a theoretical mechanism in multichannel environments. Apart from explaining a simplified multichannel user behavior, relevant researchers must deeply understand the mechanism of users' cross-over shopping behavior, which cannot be discovered by employing either existing theories or traditional research methods. Thus, this study explores why, how, and when users conduct cross-over shopping behaviors in multichannel environments by employing a grounded theory approach. In this study, we have interviewed 25 participants who have prior experiences in cross-over shopping. By analyzing the interview manuscripts using the grounded theory approach, we have extracted 118 codes in the coding steps and ultimately presented 28 categories by incorporating similar concepts from those codes. In this qualitative grounded theory study, we have discussed why, how, and when users do cross-over shopping behavior based on our selected codes and categories as well as by listening to the stories of our interviewees. By grounding our proposed framework, which can capture both dynamic information search and purchasing behavior, this study provides an alternative research approach to explain user behavior, thereby bolstering our current understanding of the cross-over shopping behavior of users in multichannel environments.

Purpose: This is the study about the experiences of university students in traditional Korean education. Methods and process: This study was based on the grounded theory method(Strauss & Corbin, 1998). Interviews and observations were conducted with 20 adults who were thought by the researcher as the teacher. They are 21 or 33 years old. This paper had conducted during 14 weeks, Results: The core category of this study is 'university students' adaptation and overcome the conflicts in the every situation. Based on the core category, three types of students' experiences were found. Three types of students are 'negative-cognition', 'positive-cognition', 'indifference'. Conclusions: For making globalizational period, we need the teachers who can understand the traditional Korea education. And we have to change them.

In this Paper, a new FRAM design technique utilizing grounded-plate PMOS-gate (GPPG) ferroelectric cell is proposed. A GPPG cell consists of a PMOS access transistor and a ferroelectric data storage capacitor. Its plate is grounded. The proposed architecture employs three novel methods for cell operation: 1) $V_{DD}$ -precharged bitline, 2) negative-voltage wordline technique and 3) negative-pulse restore. Because this configuration doesn't need the plate control circuitry, it can greatly increase the memory cell efficiency. In addition, differently from other reported common-plate cells, this scheme can supply a sufficient voltage of $V_{DD}$ to the ferroelectric capacitor during detecting and storing the polarization on the cell. Thus, there is no restriction on low voltage operation. Furthermore, by employing a compact column-path circuitry which activates only needed 8-bit data, this architecture can minimize the current consumption of the memory array. A 4- Mb FRAM circuit has been designed with 0.3-um, triple-well/1-polycide/2-metal technology, and the possibility of the realization of GPPG cell architecture has been confirmed.
