MEYER, Patrícia  y  VOSGERAU, Dilmeire Sant'Anna Ramos. ATLAS.ti contributions to the quality of a qualitative research with the grounded theory method. Rev. Diálogo Educ. [online]. 2023, vol.23, n.77, pp.929-944.  Epub 15-Ago-2023. ISSN 1981-416X.  https://doi.org/10.7213/1981-416x.23.077.ao08.

Reports that discuss in detail the methodological approach used in research, its application, and data collection and analysis procedures are fundamental to guide the decision-making process in future studies. Likewise, they contribute to making upcoming analyses more consistent, meeting the precepts of quality in qualitative research. To share experience and promote innovation in qualitative analysis procedures, we describe, in this article, the specificities and contributions of ATLAS.ti in grounded theory research in Education. Therefore, we present the key features of the grounded theory, the quality of qualitative research, and the ATLAS.ti software. Furthermore, we describe the methodological direction of the study, carried out in a doctoral thesis. Besides the agility and support to organize documents when there is a large volume of data, it is concluded that ATLAS.ti assists in executing an analysis plan. It also contributes to maintaining proximity to the data already collected, which is an essential process for performing the grounded theory and strengthening the link between reality and the interpretation of the researcher. The confirmation and transparency of the results, however, are the best contribution of the software, which enhances its verification.

Palabras clave : Qualitative research; Qualitative data analysis; Grounded theory; ATLAS.ti.
