摘要
The concept of fit and processes of fitting have been largely ignored in qualitative inquiry. In this article, the authors address the technical significance of fit as an analytic process for both data and concepts in the process of theory construction. The ramifications of violating processes of fit and examples of misfits are discussed. Finally, the procedural components and fit as a method of validation are presented.
