| Description: | This textbook has many goals. One of them is to present science and research from an epistemological position that can embrace a range of models of inquiry. Instead of adopting the heuristic perspective (Heineman Pieper 1985, 1989; Tyson 1992, 1995), which might best be described as a standpoint rather than as an epistemology, we embrace fallibilistic realism (Manicas & Secord 1983), described in chapter 1, as our epistemological framework. This perspective is one from which both what have been termed “qualitative” or naturalistic methods and traditional quantitative methods can be valued, learned, and taught. We use the terms flexible and fixed methods to differentiate these two general styles of doing research |
