“…The approach captures the words and actions of those individuals under study (Goulding, 2005) and allows for theory development during the collection and analysis of data (Douglas, 2003;Locke, 1996). The sampling looked for emerging themes and patterns until thematic saturation was reached.…”

“…In line with the grounded theory approach, in-depth interviews (Goulding, 2005) in semi-structured and open-ended form were chosen as the most appropriate data collection method as they allowed for insight into the areas of interest outlined by the research objectives, while providing flexibility to tailor interviews to each interview participant. Interviews took place in a major New Zealand city and ranged between 30 min and 50 min in length.…”

“…Open and axial coding was used to identify provisional explanatory concepts and core categories (Goulding, 2005) that were compared and contrasted throughout the data and later related to literature (Spiggle, 1994). Specifically, in open coding, the transcripts were analysed line-by-line (Strauss & Corbin, 1998) to uncover concepts that correctly capture the participants' meanings of forgiveness.…”

Employing a qualitative approach, within the context of Generation Y consumers, this research investigates the internal justification processes used by consumers contemplating to forgive a celebrity who has transgressed society's norms of acceptable behaviour. A thematic analysis of data from in-depth interviews identified nine emergent categories, grouped into four themes or core drivers: celebrityrelated drivers, consumer-related drivers, context-related drivers and time-related drivers. The findings show that although there is generally no personal relationship between consumers and celebrities, consumers tend to bond with celebrities in para-social relationships. Many consumers see these relationships as similar to how they connect with friends thus leading them to show forgiveness tendencies towards a celebrity comparable to forgiving friends. The paper presents a conceptual framework highlighting the consumer's forgiveness justification process. ARTICLE HISTORY

“…Grounded theory, in interpretative information systems research, is described as traceable to the data and as 'fluid', which means that the emphasis is on the process and the temporal nature of the theory [37]. In comparison to ethnography and phenomenology, Grounded theory has been found to have the most promising possibilities for developing a conceptual framework [56]. Theoretical sampling is sampling that is directed by theory.…”

The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of the investigation into customer e-service adoption. The investigation includes a qualitative survey and observation of participants using e-services. E-services are used to attract customers and persuade them to transact online and the customer’s perception of an e-service contributes greatly to e-service adoption or rejection. This paper describes the factors that influence customer perception towards e-services. Relationships between the identified factors were also considered in order to build a conceptual framework. Grounded theory was used for its flexibility, repetitive comparisons of data, and emergence of concepts and theories.

Despite the role of positive memories in the aetiology and maintenance of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), most PTSD interventions primarily focus on traumatic memories. To aid the development of a PTSD-specific technique focused on processing positive memories, we gathered formative input from practicing clinicians on the content, format, feasibility and acceptability of this proposed intervention technique. We recruited licensed clinicians (n = 46) through professional networks and psychology organisation Listservs, provided a description of a positive memory processing technique, and administered a questionnaire querying perspectives on the proposed technique. Most clinicians reported using positive memories in PTSD therapy (67.39%) and interest in addressing them in depth/frequently (71.74%).They reported that (a) positive memory processing could increase positive thoughts (82.50%), feelings (80%) and memory specificity (75%); (b) optimal intervention components included defining a positive memory as a peak experience (characterised by strong positive affect, a positive and impactful change on one's life, and overwhelming joy/happiness; 57.50%), identifying 1-3 memories (25.64%-33.33%), discussing them in session to elicit positive elements (68.57%-82.86%), tracking affect intensity/valence (57.14%), and using this technique to augment trauma-focused interventions (57.14%); and (c) feasibility indicators included perceived acceptability to clients (80.65%) and clinicians (66.67%), practicality (51.61%), successful implementation considering resources/time (63.33%), ease of learning (51.61%) and positive impact on therapy satisfaction/tolerability (54.84%-58.06%). Taken together, our study provides parameters for the development and investigation of a PTSD-specific positive memory processing technique.
