begin while collecting data (Marshall & Rossman, 2006). Reflecting over the
conceptual framework, and questioning the data, the ideas emerge on categories
through the engagement with the texts. Categories of inclusive patterns and
meaning, yet exclusives, are generated according to the existing framework. In a
related strategy, themes are discovered within the data, and the researcher creates
deductive constructed-analysis (Marshall & Rossman, 2006).
This study analyzed the first coding process through Initial coding. This
type of coding was chosen to examine, compare and search for similarities and
differences throughout the data, and as Charmaz contextualizes “..to remain open
to all possible theoretical directions indicated by your readings of the data.”
(2006, p.46). The second level coding chosen, was Pattern coding. Pattern coding
gave to this study the basis to explain major themes underneath the segments of
the data; patterns in human relationships, the search for causes and explanations
to the possible phenomenon, and finally, the platform to construct frameworks
and processes. To conclude, a Triangulation of the patterns and themes, creates
new levels of understanding the existing knowledge by reviewing the interviews
in a comparative analysis with the previous two levels of coding (Saldaña, 2009).
