Figure 2 Summary Schematic of GNUe Research Schema
Using a single-perspective approach, we utilize the integration perspective for our cultural
analysis. The integration perspective focuses on cultural manifestations that have mutually consistent interpretations. The focus is on organization-wide consensus although not necessarily unanimous beliefs throughout an organization. In Section 7, we describe the codings and variables derived in the grounded theory that form the analytical schema for our research. Then in Sections 8 and 9, two in-depth case studies are presented as exemplars of these codings. Future comparison of this culture with other open source cultures may lead to generalizations but this particular case study is that of a single culture.
