Outside of the Onion
The Research Onion diagram that this model has been based upon excludes the three
philosophies of Ontology, Epistemology and Axiology. Understanding and choosing a
philosophy is an important step in planning and carrying out research, so we have included
these as three additional elements outside of the main onion.

Ontology
What is Ontology?
Ontological philosophy is concerned with the nature of reality. It requires researchers to ask
themselves how they think the world operates, how society is constructed and how this
influences everything around us.
Ontology talks about the difference between reality, our perception of reality and how this
influences people’s behaviour.
