A systematic methodology in the social sciences involving the construction of theories through methodical gathering and analysis of data, which operates inductively is ................
Grounded theory
Grounded theory was developed by Barney Glaser and Anselm Strauss in The Discovery of Grounded Theory (1967). It is a qualitative methodology in which theory is built from the data rather than tested against it.
Data are gathered and analysed simultaneously through coding, constant comparison and theoretical sampling, and concepts and theory emerge inductively from the data.
Triangulation is a strategy of using multiple data sources or methods for credibility, experimentation is a deductive, hypothesis-testing method, and convergence narrative is not a theory-building methodology.
Hence, the answer is Grounded theory.
.................... is the characteristic of qualitative research.
Recording of ................. in qualitative research is called as memoing.

Codes :
(P) (Q) (R) (S)
Assertion (A) : Qualitative researchers do not contribute to the process of generalisation.
Reason (R) : Because qualitative researchers believe in understanding of phenomena through indepth, study as the essence of qualitative research.
