Coding the Data
As interviews are being conducted, the researcher begins to code incoming data using a line by line analysis. This study uses a constructivist grounded theory methodology whereby new theories may emerge as the researcher compares data with data, codes with codes, and codes with categories.

Findings, Discussion, & Conclusion
Once there is theoretical saturation, meaning no new data is emerging that can advance new categories, the findings of the study will be written up. Emergent categories will be analyzed and discussed among the literature used to support the study. Conclusions will be formed, noting the limitations and delimitations of the study, as well as possibilities for future implications and research.
