,Module 1: Research design and
methods
Learning goals module I:
1. Students can describe philosophies of science and explain what views and
actions are
implied by each philosophy of science.
2. Students can identify the defining characteristics of research strategies
such as
experiments, surveys, cases studies, secondary data analysis,
ethnography, content and
discourse analysis, and evaluation research.
3. Students can identify answerable social scientific research questions and
identify which
data collection methods and data analysis techniques best match with
those questions.
4. Students can identify operationalisation strategies and identify the parts of
a coherent
conceptual framework and conceptual model.
5. Students can apply criteria for scientific quality (such as validity and
reliability) on the
quality of research designs.

Week 1: Worldviews & Research questions
This lecture:
1. Approaches to Social Research
2. Philosophical worldview
3. Research Questions
4. Research Strategy

Foundations of social science:
- Theory vs. logic
- Data collection vs. observation
- Data analysis vs. the comparison of what is logically expected with what is
actually observed

Approaches to social Research
- Qualitative Data: Nonnumerical data
Quantitative Data: Numerical data. Makes observations more explicit
and makes it easier to aggregate, compare, and summarize data

- Idiographic: Seeks to fully understand the causes of what happened in a
single instance (case)
- Nomothetic: Seeks to explain a class of
situations or events rather than a single
one (generalizability)

- Induction: From specific observations to
the discovery of a pattern among all the
given events.

2

, - Deduction: From a pattern that might be logically expected to
observations that
test whether the pattern occurs.

Example Emile Durkheim, Suicide
Explaining suicide on the basis of existing statistics:
1. Generalisation 1: people that are alone commit suicide more than people
that are married
2. Generalisation 2: people that are living in cities commit suicide more than
people living in villages
3. Generalisation 3: protestants commit suicide more than Catholics
Theory: lack of social cohesion explains suicide

The traditional model
- Deductive: start with theory
- Nomothetic: causal models
- Quantitative: numerical variables

Which philosophical worldview do you prefer?
1. Post-positivism
2. Constructivism
3. Transformative
4. Pragmatism

Philosophical beliefs:
1. Ontology: What is the nature of reality?
2. Epistemology: How reality is known?
3. Axiology: What is the role of values?

Positivist worldview: Auguste Comte (1789-1857): Knowledge as a mirror of
nature (E = m * c2).
Inductive: start with observations and develop theory (also known as: Grounded
Theory). How to choose the appropriate path? “Beneath any given research
design and choice of methods lies a researcher’s understanding of the nature of
the world and how it should be studied” Moses & Knutsen 2012:1
