Clinical examples are provided. The relevance of CA to clinicians, researchers and supervisors is also discussed.

Constant Comparison Method: A Kaleidoscope Of Data, Jane F. Dye, Irene M. Schatz, Brian A. Rosenberg, Susanne T. Coleman

The Qualitative Report

This paper will attempt to illustrate the use of a kaleidoscope metaphor as a template for the organization and analysis of qualitative research data. It will provide a brief overview of the constant comparison method, examining such processes as categorization, comparison, inductive analysis, and refinement of data bits and categories. Graphic representations of our metaphoric kaleidoscope will be strategically interspersed throughout this paper.
