Saturation in qualitative research: exploring its conceptualization and operationalization (2017, background): “These students know their data’ (Morse 2015: p. 588).”
‘Bringing everyone on the same journey’: revisiting inclusion in higher education (2019, background): “Data saturation is important in qualitative studies as it supports data richness and data theorising (Morse 2015).”
‘Define, Explain, Justify, Apply’ (DEJA): An analytic tool for guiding qualitative research sample size (2021, methodology): “…sample size to be determined based on a method known as saturation (Dworkin, 2012; Hennink et al., 2016; Hennink et al., 2019; Mandal, 2018; Morse, 2015; Saunders et al., 2018; Seidman, 2006; Sim et al., 2018a; Sykes et al., 2018) while the other calls for the identification of factors…”
Using conceptual depth criteria: addressing the challenge of reaching saturation in qualitative research (2017, background): “Where the concept of saturation is applied in other contexts, there is the possibility that researchers mistake the repetition of events and incidents in the data as evidence of saturation (Charmaz, 2014: 213; Morse, 2015: 587).”
Code Saturation Versus Meaning Saturation: How Many Interviews Are Enough? (2016, background): “Our study responds to calls for more methodological research on operationalizing saturation (by Francis et al., 2010; Guest et al., 2006; Morse, 2015).”
Sample Size in Qualitative Interview Studies (2016, methodology): “Authors claiming saturation are not always transparent about how it has been achieved (Morse, 2015a), and several studies are actually not compatible with the saturation concept of GT. Reviews reveal that the concept is often poorly specified and definitely not corresponding with the original…”
Saturation controversy in qualitative research: Complexities and underlying assumptions. A literature review (2020, background): “The resultant outcome is abstract and connected to literature, findings are capable of generalisability and “findings surprise and delight the reader” (Morse, 2015, p. 588).”
What Influences Saturation? Estimating Sample Sizes in Focus Group Research (2019, neutral): “It is now widely used outside of its grounded theory origins and has become “the most frequently touted guarantee of qualitative rigor” (Morse, 2015, p. 587).”
