TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose a framework that focuses initially on the more proximal factors that influence an employee's likelihood of participating in such programs, and then examine the role of organization-based situational characteristics in shaping both personal and normative assessments.

TL;DR: Situational analysis is an extension of grounded theory as discussed by the authors, which is based on pursuing four mapping strategies and memoing the maps in detail: situational maps, relational maps, social worlds/arenas maps, and positional maps.
Abstract: This chapter presents an overview of situational analysis, an extension of grounded theory Here I engage the question: “What’s new in situational analysis and how does it differ from grounded theory?” Methodologically new is a shift from the grounded theory focus on human action to the broader situation as the unit of analysis Significantly, the situation also includes the “nonhuman actors” present in that situation, from material things (eg, dogs, technologies, viruses, buildings) to discourses, visual imagery, and so forth, as well as humans Theoretically, there is a new shift to emphasizing Straussian social worlds and arenas maps in a Chicago ecological framing Additional theoretical inspirations include Foucault’s discourse studies, moving us beyond the participant as the “knowing subject,” and Deleuze and Guattari’s rhizomes and assemblages as ecological configurations
Situational analysis is based on pursuing four mapping strategies and memoing the maps in detail: situational maps, relational maps, social worlds/arenas maps, and positional maps Data for making the maps may include transcribed interviews, memos of ethnographic observations, and analyses of extant (found in the situation) discursive materials (documents, visual and historical materials such as websites) A situational map including all the elements tentatively in the situation is useful even at design stages of research (then much revised as data are gathered) All maps are done and redone across the trajectory of the research
Situational analysis also brings new critical tools to the constructivist grounded theory toolbox These include analyzing implicated actors and actants (present in the situation but largely to serve others’ ends) and analyzing collective power relations and boundary objects through social worlds and arenas maps and analytics By attending to the margins and who/that which is marginalized, representation in situational analysis is more deeply democratized Mapping also enhances opportunities for collaboration

TL;DR: This article found that the mere presence of a computer caused people to think more about and request more information about the product than those in the print context did, while the attitudes of those who evaluated the product on paper reflected the valence of the dimension that is typically used when evaluating the product.

TL;DR: A short survey of the multiple dependences of medical situations shows that ethics in medicine must undertake a new beginning and cannot be normative ethics, it cannot be situation Ethics, it must be differential ethics.
