• Researching Entrepreneurship as Lived Experience (2006, background): “Such understanding is always grounded in individual experiences and framed in a social and cultural context, so while interpretations may seem more or less plausible, the interpretative element is unavoidable in the human sciences (cf. Taylor 1971).”
• The Role of Consequences in validity Theory (2005, background): “The social theorists I read offer extended philosophical arguments and empirically based illustrations of the dialectical relationship between social reality and our representation of it (Bourdieu, 1990; Foucault, 1977, 1980; Taylor, 1987).”
• The Development of Entrepreneurial Leadership (2013, unknown): “Further, we argue that these accounts should include analysis of the role of institutional capital (Anderson, 2010) to fully understand the development of entrepreneurial leadership in its everyday practices and discourses (Chia and Holt, 2008; Garfinkel, 1967; Heidegger, 1962; Taylor, 1985).”
• Framing the alcohol policy debate: industry actors and the regulation of the UK beverage alcohol market (2013, unknown): “…theory has much in common with other interpretative or critical approaches to policy analysis which focus on the construction of social reality and the symbolic use of language within policy debates (Taylor 1971, Edelman 1977, 1988, Gusfield 1981, Lakoff 2004, see also Glynos and Howarth 2007).”
• Teacher reflection: the development of a typology (2008, background): “Along these lines, Tom (1985), Taylor (1987), Guba and Lincoln (1989), and Howe (2001) have distinguished conventional approaches to reflection from constructivist approaches.”
• The Grounded Theory Method: Application of a Variant of Its Procedure of Constant Comparative Analysis to Psychotherapy Research (2006, background): “I see this space as being especially pertinent to the human sciences (cf. Fischer, 1977; Giorgi, 1970; Rennie, 1995a; Taylor, 1971).”
• Culture and Context-sensitive Self: The Amount and Meaning of Context-sensitivity of Phenomenal Self Differ Across Cultures (2004, background): “Theorists such as Charles Taylor (1979) and Clifford Geertz (1973) famously argued that the explication of meaning is different from the examination of causal relationships among events.”
• Framework analysis: a worked example of a study exploring young people’s experiences of depression (2016, background): “Taylor (1971) wrote: “But how does one know that [an] interpretation is correct?”
