(p.43) + +"codes stick closely to the data, show actions, and indicate how +dilemmas surrounding disclosure arise." (p.45) + +"Coding is the pivotal link between collect- +ing data and developing an emergent theory +to explain these data." (p.46) + +"The logic of grounded theory coding differs from quantitative logic that +applies preconceived categories or codes to the data."(p.46) + +"Language plays a crucial role"(p.46) +"Specific use of language reflects views and values." (p.47) + +"Coding impels us to make our participants' language +problematic to render an analysis of it. Coding should inspire us to examine +hidden assumptions in our own use of language as well as that of our participants."
