Research findings are almost never quantified
because it is meaning and interpretation and
not some numerical abstractions and calculations
that drive research following this approach. Moreover,
if (some) quantification occurs, numbers are
never taken as data abstracted from an objective
world, which would be in conflict with the research
paradigm. The research outcome is a “thick description,”
or even a theory of the culture of an organization.(
12,13) The description or theory may be accompanied
by summary statements, core categories, or
basic assumptions. If the theory turns out to be incomplete
or “wrong,” it is adjusted to accommodate
the contrasting empirical findings.
