- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 31 พ.ค. 2024
- In this video, we unpack research paradigms and research philosophy to shed light on the "Big 3" - positivism, interpretivism, and pragmatism. We'll explore how positivism emphasises objective reality and quantitative data, interpretivism focuses on subjective meaning and qualitative inquiry, and pragmatism seeks a balance between the two, prioritising practicality and context. We'll provide practical examples of each research paradigm, as well as some guidance regarding how you can apply the correct research paradigm and philosophy to your research project.

Positivism (from "to posit", rather than "opposed to what is negative" )is a philosophical school that holds that all genuine knowledge is either true by definition or positive. Positive statements are distinct from normative statements. Positive statements are based on empirical evidence, can be tested, and involve no value judgements. Positive statements refer to what is and contain no indication of approval or disapproval. When values or opinions come into the analysis, then it is in the realm of normative statements. A normative statement expresses a judgment about whether a situation is desirable or undesirable, which can carry value judgements. These refer to what ought to be.
Realism, not Positivism, is the belief that Reality is objective and independent of cognitive construction.

I've been feeling a constant feeling of not quite knowing who I am in relation to my research (not fluffy at all!) after watching this video I now realise I actually knew all along, I just needed to identify with the concepts explained in this video! Thank you!! ALSO - I'd be wary of overusing the word 'fluffy' - it has derogatory connotations. I think this does Scientific research, as a whole, a dis-service - if other ways of research are seen as less 'important' or 'valid'.
You're most welcome. Thanks for the feedback.
Thank you very informative session ☺️

Thank you for these valuable videos. Please Please make a video about the "Powerpoint Presentation "of the doctoral defense .For example, I don't know which parts of each section to include because time is so short in defense appointment and I feel like my qualitative project has so much valuable information to offer that I can't really choose which parts to include .... In fact, this presentation file should include what points from each section, especially about the results and findings chapter
Thanks for the suggestion :)
