Revised Analytic Induction and Constant Comparative Method: Approaches to Qualitative Research

Data collection and analysis are intertwined in the qualitative research process. How to develop a theory from wider phenomena under study is mysterious and vague to students and novice researchers. Using a real qualitative research project as an example， this paper first explicitly demonstrates how to apply revised analytic induction and constant comparative method in a qualitative research process. Then the applicability and strategies of the two approaches are compared from sampling strategies ，theoretical modification， negative case， theoretical building and holistic research plan.
