The core of scientific thought is induction. This is not a matter of opinion or preference. It only stands to reason that a theory with any significant reliance on speculation, the mere guessing at solutions, cannot be accepted as a solid one. If we, as a society or as a people, define speculative science as valid, then speculative science will be the unsteady foundation for further scientific inquiry, placing all future research in doubt. Consider, as an example, the following subset of an…

Introduction There is so much power in research. In the context of social work research is an important tool to understanding diverse populations. The importance of research with social worker can influence decision making with clinicians. Gathering data and analyzing its results is helpful to providing certain areas with necessities. Not only is research in this context powerful, it is also necessary. If done correctly it will make an impact on society and create changes in areas as time moves…

three topics involve the type of research that would need to be conducted in more intensive qualitative and quantitative form, requiring observation and empirical analysis. Research of the above topics cannot be determined through a survey design method; they require much more research. 2. In your own words, explain the difference between experimental and causal-comparative…

pocket picking. The number of incidents for each crime was then recorded (Scarr, H 1980 p1). This method is problematic however as Typically, the number of incidents in a series is estimated by the victims, and there appears to be a tendency to overestimate the number. Therefore, these results may not be a true representation of the number of victims of each category of criminal behaviour. As the method used is a self-report technique, it is possible that not all of the crimes are reported by…

Durkheim’s theory of suicide is relevant today in explaining the problem of veterans’ suicide. The theory suggests that social factors are the main cause of suicide among veterans, and it is especially noticeable in our society today. Suicide can be defined as: “an act performed advisedly, where the agent knows that death will be the result of his act, regardless of whether or not death is the goal” (Jones, 1986, p. 82-114). Durkheim’s definition was: “Suicide is applied to all cases of death…

a phenomenon. Quantitative research methodology is used in a variety of natural and social sciences including physics, biology, sociology, and geology. According to Cohen (1980), quantitative research is a social research that includes empirical methods as well as empirical statements. Cohen has described empirical statement as a descriptive statement that is about the case of the real world. Empirical statements are expresses in terms of…

The Dual Multiplex of the Divided Line Argument, in the conversational Platonic sense, is one possible way to come to accurate conclusions. In an argument, two or more opposing sides all present their evidence, and, upon deliberation, all sides come to a unanimous conclusion, which forms a thesis. In when more evidence is brought forward, the thesis is compared to the antithesis, and synthesis occurs through which a new, more refined thesis is created. In Plato’s Republic, this dialectical…

Principal investigator-The first person I chose to explore was principal investigator (PI).. The first challenge faced involved deciding whether or not to send a visibly Greg home. I chose to send him home because he was visibly tired and the likelihood that his work would be subpar or involve mistakes would increase. In addition to preventing costly mistakes, I sent Greg home for his own health, and to let him know that PIs believe in rest. Next, Kim approached the PI with a problem while he…

Clinical Question The problem that is addressed in this paper is whether use of electronic charting is an effective tool to reduce the future risk of the complications that arise after the operations, in comparison to the traditional paper charting. The significance of this problem is that the paper charting of the patients are facing certain drawbacks. These are the quality issues of the records, loss in the productivity due to these records and also the cost that is included in the manual…
