The article aims at improving coding practice and at making explicit different aspects underpinning GTM. Special emphasis is placed on linking both the dialogue with data and the development of a storyline. The starting point is a general description of coding, followed by a discussion of the different stages of coding (open, axial/theoretical and selective coding) and the conclusion puts forward the idea of a reflective-interpretive handling of GTM.URN: urn:nbn:de:0114-fqs0802138 ER -
