However, the term can also refer to the methods themselves or to the <a href="/wiki/Philosophical" class="mw-redirect" title="Philosophical">philosophical</a> discussion of associated background assumptions. A method is a structured procedure for bringing about a certain goal, like acquiring <a href="/wiki/Knowledge" title="Knowledge">knowledge</a> or verifying knowledge claims. This normally involves various steps, like choosing a <a href="/wiki/Sample_(statistics)" class="mw-redirect" title="Sample (statistics)">sample</a>, <a href="/wiki/Data_collection" title="Data collection">collecting data</a> from this sample, and interpreting the data. The study of methods concerns a detailed description and analysis of these processes. It includes evaluative aspects by comparing different methods. This way, it is assessed what advantages and disadvantages they have and for what research goals they may be used. These descriptions and evaluations depend on philosophical background assumptions. Examples are how to <a href="/wiki/Concept" title="Concept">conceptualize</a> the studied phenomena and what constitutes <a href="/wiki/Evidence" title="Evidence">evidence</a> for or against them. When understood in the widest sense, methodology also includes the discussion of these more abstract issues. Methodologies are traditionally divided into <a href="/wiki/Quantitative_research" title="Quantitative research">quantitative</a> and <a href="/wiki/Qualitative_research" title="Qualitative research">qualitative research</a>. Quantitative research is the main methodology of the <a href="/wiki/Natural_science" title="Natural science">natural sciences</a>. It uses precise numerical <a href="/wiki/Measurement" title="Measurement">measurements</a>. Its goal is usually to find universal laws used to make <a href="/wiki/Prediction" title="Prediction">predictions</a> about future events. The dominant methodology in the natural sciences is called the <a href="/wiki/Scientific_method" title="Scientific method">scientific method</a>. It includes steps like <a href="/wiki/Observation" title="Observation">observation</a> and the formulation of a <a href="/wiki/Hypothesis" title="Hypothesis">hypothesis</a>. Further steps are to test the hypothesis using an experiment, to compare the measurements to the expected results, and to publish the findings. Qualitative research is more characteristic of the <a href="/wiki/Social_science" title="Social science">social sciences</a> and gives less prominence to exact numerical measurements. It aims more at an in-depth understanding of the meaning of the studied phenomena and less at universal and predictive laws. Common methods found in the social sciences are <a href="/wiki/Survey_methodology" title="Survey methodology">surveys</a>, <a href="/wiki/Interview_(research)" title="Interview (research)">interviews</a>, <a href="/wiki/Focus_groups" class="mw-redirect" title="Focus groups">focus groups</a>, and the <a href="/wiki/Nominal_group_technique" title="Nominal group technique">nominal group technique</a>. They differ from each other concerning their sample size, the types of questions asked, and the general setting. In recent decades, many social scientists have started using <a href="/wiki/Mixed-methods_research" class="mw-redirect" title="Mixed-methods research">mixed-methods research</a>, which combines quantitative and qualitative methodologies. Many discussions in methodology concern the question of whether the quantitative approach is superior, especially whether it is adequate when applied to the social domain. A few theorists reject methodology as a discipline in general. For example, some argue that it is useless since methods should be used rather than studied. Others hold that it is harmful because it restricts the <a href="/wiki/Freedom" title="Freedom">freedom</a> and <a href="/wiki/Creativity" title="Creativity">creativity</a> of researchers. Methodologists often respond to these objections by claiming that a good methodology helps researchers arrive at reliable theories in an efficient way. The choice of method often matters since the same factual material can lead to different conclusions depending on one's method. Interest in methodology has risen in the 20th century due to the increased importance of <a href="/wiki/Interdisciplinary" class="mw-redirect" title="Interdisciplinary">interdisciplinary</a> work and the obstacles hindering efficient cooperation. <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Definitions">Definitions</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Methodology&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Definitions">edit</a>]</div> The term "methodology" is associated with a variety of meanings.

The term "technique" is often used as a synonym both in the academic and the everyday discourse. Methods usually involve a clearly defined series of decisions and <a href="/wiki/Action_(philosophy)" title="Action (philosophy)">actions</a> to be used under certain circumstances, usually expressable as a sequence of repeatable instructions. The goal of following the steps of a method is to bring about the result promised by it. In the context of inquiry, methods may be defined as systems of rules and procedures to discover regularities of <a href="/wiki/Nature" title="Nature">nature</a>, <a href="/wiki/Society" title="Society">society</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Thought" title="Thought">thought</a>.<a href="#cite_note-Mehrten2010-6">[6]</a><a href="#cite_note-MetzlerMethode-7">[7]</a> In this sense, methodology can refer to procedures used to arrive at new <a href="/wiki/Knowledge" title="Knowledge">knowledge</a> or to techniques of verifying and falsifying pre-existing knowledge claims.<a href="#cite_note-MetzlerMethodologie-9">[9]</a> This encompasses various issues pertaining both to the collection of data and their analysis. Concerning the collection, it involves the problem of <a href="/wiki/Sampling_(statistics)" title="Sampling (statistics)">sampling</a> and of how to go about the data collection itself, like surveys, interviews, or observation. There are also numerous methods of how the collected data can be analyzed using statistics or other ways of interpreting it to extract interesting conclusions.<a href="#cite_note-Bryman2008-10">[10]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="As_study_of_methods">As study of methods</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Methodology&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: As study of methods">edit</a>]</div> However, many theorists emphasize the differences between the terms "method" and "methodology".<a href="#cite_note-Howell2012-Preface-1">[1]</a><a href="#cite_note-MetzlerMethode-7">[7]</a><a href="#cite_note-AHD-Methodology-2">[2]</a><a href="#cite_note-Schwandt2014-11">[11]</a> In this regard, methodology may be defined as "the study or description of methods" or as "the <a href="/wiki/Analysis" title="Analysis">analysis</a> of the principles of methods, rules, and postulates employed by a discipline".<a href="#cite_note-merrian-webster-12">[12]</a><a href="#cite_note-Baskerville1991-13">[13]</a> This study or analysis involves uncovering assumptions and practices associated with the different methods and a detailed description of <a href="/wiki/Research_design" title="Research design">research designs</a> and <a href="/wiki/Hypothesis_testing" class="mw-redirect" title="Hypothesis testing">hypothesis testing</a>. It also includes evaluative aspects: forms of data collection, measurement strategies, and ways to analyze data are compared and their advantages and disadvantages relative to different research goals and situations are assessed. In this regard, methodology provides the <a href="/wiki/Skill" title="Skill">skills</a>, knowledge, and practical guidance needed to conduct scientific research in an efficient manner. It acts as a guideline for various decisions researchers need to take in the scientific process.<a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a><a href="#cite_note-Bryman2008-10">[10]</a> Methodology can be understood as the middle ground between concrete particular methods and the abstract and general issues discussed by the <a href="/wiki/Philosophy_of_science" title="Philosophy of science">philosophy of science</a>.<a href="#cite_note-Schwandt2014-11">[11]</a><a href="#cite_note-Mills2014-15">[15]</a> In this regard, methodology comes after formulating a research question and helps the researchers decide what methods to use in the process. For example, methodology should assist the researcher in deciding why one method of sampling is preferable to another in a particular case or which form of data analysis is likely to bring the best results. Methodology achieves this by explaining, evaluating and justifying methods. Just as there are different methods, there are also different methodologies. Different methodologies provide different approaches to how methods are evaluated and explained and may thus make different suggestions on what method to use in a particular case.<a href="#cite_note-Mills2014-15">[15]</a><a href="#cite_note-Schwandt2014-11">[11]</a> According to Aleksandr Georgievich Spirkin, "[a] methodology is a system of principles and general ways of organising and structuring theoretical and practical activity, and also the theory of this system".<a href="#cite_note-Spirkin1983-16">[16]</a><a href="#cite_note-Oduor2010-17">[17]</a> Helen Kara defines methodology as "a contextual framework for research, a coherent and logical scheme based on views, beliefs, and values, that guides the choices researchers make".<a href="#cite_note-18">[18]</a> Ginny E. Garcia and Dudley L. Poston understand methodology either as a complex body of rules and postulates guiding research or as the analysis of such rules and procedures. As a body of rules and postulates, a methodology defines the subject of analysis as well as the <a href="/wiki/Concept" title="Concept">conceptual</a> tools used by the analysis and the limits of the analysis. Research projects are usually governed by a structured procedure known as the research process. The goal of this process is given by a <a href="/wiki/Research_question" title="Research question">research question</a>, which determines what kind of information one intends to acquire.<a href="#cite_note-Garcia2008-19">[19]</a><a href="#cite_note-20">[20]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="As_discussion_of_background_assumptions">As discussion of background assumptions</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Methodology&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: As discussion of background assumptions">edit</a>]</div> Some theorists prefer an even wider understanding of methodology that involves not just the description, comparison, and evaluation of methods but includes additionally more general philosophical issues. One reason for this wider approach is that discussions of when to use which method often take various background assumptions for granted, for example, concerning the goal and nature of research. These assumptions can at times play an important role concerning which method to choose and how to follow it.<a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a><a href="#cite_note-Schwandt2014-11">[11]</a><a href="#cite_note-21">[21]</a> For example, <a href="/wiki/Thomas_Kuhn" title="Thomas Kuhn">Thomas Kuhn</a> argues in his <a href="/wiki/The_Structure_of_Scientific_Revolutions" title="The Structure of Scientific Revolutions">The Structure of Scientific Revolutions</a> that sciences operate within a framework or a <a href="/wiki/Paradigm" title="Paradigm">paradigm</a> that determines which questions are asked and what counts as good science. This concerns philosophical disagreements both about how to conceptualize the phenomena studied, what constitutes <a href="/wiki/Evidence" title="Evidence">evidence</a> for and against them, and what the general goal of researching them is.<a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a><a href="#cite_note-Bird2018-22">[22]</a><a href="#cite_note-23">[23]</a> So in this wider sense, methodology overlaps with philosophy by making these assumptions explicit and presenting arguments for and against them.<a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a> According to C. S. Herrman, a good methodology clarifies the structure of the data to be analyzed and helps the researchers see the phenomena in a new light. In this regard, a methodology is similar to a paradigm.<a href="#cite_note-Herrman2009-3">[3]</a><a href="#cite_note-Mills2014-15">[15]</a> A similar view is defended by Spirkin, who holds that a central aspect of every methodology is the <a href="/wiki/World_view" class="mw-redirect" title="World view">world view</a> that comes with it.<a href="#cite_note-Spirkin1983-16">[16]</a> The discussion of background assumptions can include <a href="/wiki/Metaphysical" class="mw-redirect" title="Metaphysical">metaphysical</a> and <a href="/wiki/Ontological" class="mw-redirect" title="Ontological">ontological</a> issues in cases where they have important implications for the proper research methodology. For example, a <a href="/wiki/Philosophical_realism" title="Philosophical realism">realist</a> perspective considering the observed phenomena as an external and independent <a href="/wiki/Reality" title="Reality">reality</a> is often associated with an emphasis on empirical data collection and a more distanced and objective attitude. <a href="/wiki/Idealism" title="Idealism">Idealists</a>, on the other hand, hold that external reality is not fully independent of the <a href="/wiki/Mind" title="Mind">mind</a> and tend, therefore, to include more subjective tendencies in the research process as well.<a href="#cite_note-Howell2012-1-5">[5]</a><a href="#cite_note-24">[24]</a><a href="#cite_note-25">[25]</a> For the <a href="/wiki/Quantitative_research" title="Quantitative research">quantitative approach</a>, philosophical debates in methodology include the distinction between the <a href="/wiki/Inductive_reasoning" title="Inductive reasoning">inductive</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Hypothetico-deductive" class="mw-redirect" title="Hypothetico-deductive">hypothetico-deductive</a> interpretation of the scientific method. For <a href="/wiki/Qualitative_research" title="Qualitative research">qualitative research</a>, many basic assumptions are tied to philosophical positions such as <a href="/wiki/Hermeneutics" title="Hermeneutics">hermeneutics</a>, <a href="/wiki/Pragmatism" title="Pragmatism">pragmatism</a>, <a href="/wiki/Marxism" title="Marxism">Marxism</a>, <a href="/wiki/Critical_theory" title="Critical theory">critical theory</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Postmodernism" title="Postmodernism">postmodernism</a>.<a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a><a href="#cite_note-26">[26]</a> According to Kuhn, an important factor in such debates is that the different paradigms are <a href="/wiki/Commensurability_(philosophy_of_science)" title="Commensurability (philosophy of science)">incommensurable</a>. This means that there is no overarching framework to assess the conflicting theoretical and methodological assumptions. This critique puts into question various presumptions of the quantitative approach associated with scientific progress based on the steady accumulation of data.<a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a><a href="#cite_note-Bird2018-22">[22]</a> Other discussions of abstract theoretical issues in the philosophy of science are also sometimes included.<a href="#cite_note-Mehrten2010-6">[6]</a><a href="#cite_note-MetzlerMethodologie-9">[9]</a> This can involve questions like how and whether scientific research differs from <a href="/wiki/Fictional" class="mw-redirect" title="Fictional">fictional</a> writing as well as whether research studies objective facts rather than constructing the phenomena it claims to study. In the latter sense, some methodologists have even claimed that the goal of science is less to represent a pre-existing reality and more to bring about some kind of social change in favor of repressed groups in society.<a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Related_terms_and_issues">Related terms and issues</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Methodology&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Related terms and issues">edit</a>]</div> Viknesh Andiappan and Yoke Kin Wan use the field of <a href="/wiki/Process_systems_engineering" class="mw-redirect" title="Process systems engineering">process systems engineering</a> to distinguish the term "methodology" from the closely related terms "approach", "method", "procedure", and "technique".<a href="#cite_note-Andiappan2020-27">[27]</a> On their view, "approach" is the most general term. It can be defined as "a way or direction used to address a problem based on a set of assumptions". An example is the difference between hierarchical approaches, which consider one task at a time in a hierarchical manner, and concurrent approaches, which consider them all simultaneously. Methodologies are a little more specific. They are general strategies needed to realize an approach and may be understood as guidelines for how to make choices. Often the term "framework" is used as a synonym. A method is a still more specific way of practically implementing the approach. Methodologies provide the guidelines that help researchers decide which method to follow. The method itself may be understood as a sequence of techniques. A technique is a step taken that can be observed and measured. Each technique has some immediate result. The whole sequence of steps is termed a "procedure".<a href="#cite_note-Andiappan2020-27">[27]</a><a href="#cite_note-28">[28]</a> A similar but less complex characterization is sometimes found in the field of <a href="/wiki/Language_teaching" class="mw-redirect" title="Language teaching">language teaching</a>, where the teaching process may be described through a three-level conceptualization based on "approach", "method", and "technique".<a href="#cite_note-Richards2001-29">[29]</a> One question concerning the definition of methodology is whether it should be understood as a descriptive or a <a href="/wiki/Normative" class="mw-redirect" title="Normative">normative</a> discipline. The key difference in this regard is whether methodology just provides a value-neutral description of methods or what scientists actually do. Many methodologists practice their craft in a normative sense, meaning that they express clear opinions about the advantages and disadvantages of different methods. In this regard, methodology is not just about what researchers actually do but about what they ought to do or how to perform good research.<a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a><a href="#cite_note-Hatfield1996-8">[8]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Types">Types</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Methodology&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: Types">edit</a>]</div> Theorists often distinguish various general types or approaches to methodology.

This way, it is possible to get a first impression of the field and potential theories, thus paving the way for investigating the issue in further studies.<a href="#cite_note-Aspers2019-32">[32]</a><a href="#cite_note-Powell1996-30">[30]</a> Quantitative methods dominate in the natural sciences but both methodologies are used in the social sciences.<a href="#cite_note-Howell2012-13-4">[4]</a> Some social scientists focus mostly on one method while others try to investigate the same phenomenon using a variety of different methods.<a href="#cite_note-Howell2012-13-4">[4]</a><a href="#cite_note-Spirkin1983-16">[16]</a> It is central to both approaches how the group of individuals used for the data collection is selected. This process is known as <a href="/wiki/Sampling_(statistics)" title="Sampling (statistics)">sampling</a>. It involves the selection of a subset of individuals or phenomena to be measured. Important in this regard is that the selected samples are representative of the whole population, i.e. that no significant biases were involved when choosing. If this is not the case, the data collected does not reflect what the population as a whole is like. This affects generalizations and predictions drawn from the biased data.<a href="#cite_note-Howell2012-13-4">[4]</a><a href="#cite_note-Garcia2008-19">[19]</a> The number of individuals selected is called the <a href="/wiki/Sample_size" class="mw-redirect" title="Sample size">sample size</a>. For qualitative research, the sample size is usually rather small, while quantitative research tends to focus on big groups and collecting a lot of data. After the collection, the data needs to be analyzed and interpreted to arrive at interesting conclusions that pertain directly to the research question. This way, the wealth of information obtained is summarized and thus made more accessible to others. Especially in the case of quantitative research, this often involves the application of some form of statistics to make sense of the numerous individual measurements.<a href="#cite_note-Garcia2008-19">[19]</a><a href="#cite_note-Hatfield1996-8">[8]</a> Many discussions in the history of methodology center around the quantitative methods used by the natural sciences. A central question in this regard is to what extent they can be applied to other fields, like the social sciences and <a href="/wiki/History" title="History">history</a>.<a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a> The success of the natural sciences was often seen as an indication of the superiority of the quantitative methodology and used as an argument to apply this approach to other fields as well.<a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a><a href="#cite_note-Machlup1961-37">[37]</a> However, this outlook has been put into question in the more recent methodological discourse. In this regard, it is often argued that the paradigm of the natural sciences is a one-sided development of <a href="/wiki/Reason" title="Reason">reason</a>, which is not equally well suited to all areas of inquiry.<a href="#cite_note-Bryman2008-10">[10]</a><a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a> The divide between quantitative and qualitative methods in the social sciences is one consequence of this criticism.<a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a> Which method is more appropriate often depends on the goal of the research. For example, quantitative methods usually excel for evaluating preconceived hypotheses that can be clearly formulated and measured. Qualitative methods, on the other hand, can be used to study complex individual issues, often with the goal of formulating new hypotheses. This is especially relevant when the existing knowledge of the subject is inadequate.<a href="#cite_note-Powell1996-30">[30]</a> Important advantages of quantitative methods include precision and reliability. However, they have often difficulties in studying very complex phenomena that are commonly of interest to the social sciences. Additional problems can arise when the data is misinterpreted to defend conclusions that are not directly supported by the measurements themselves.<a href="#cite_note-Howell2012-13-4">[4]</a> In recent decades, many researchers in the social sciences have started combining both methodologies. This is known as <a href="/wiki/Mixed-methods_research" class="mw-redirect" title="Mixed-methods research">mixed-methods research</a>. A central motivation for this is that the two approaches can complement each other in various ways: some issues are ignored or too difficult to study with one methodology and are better approached with the other. In other cases, both approaches are applied to the same issue to produce more comprehensive and well-rounded results.<a href="#cite_note-Howell2012-13-4">[4]</a><a href="#cite_note-38">[38]</a><a href="#cite_note-39">[39]</a> Qualitative and quantitative research are often associated with different research paradigms and background assumptions. Qualitative researchers often use an interpretive or critical approach while quantitative researchers tend to prefer a positivistic approach. Important disagreements between these approaches concern the role of objectivity and hard empirical data as well as the research goal of predictive success rather than in-depth understanding or social change.<a href="#cite_note-Garcia2008-19">[19]</a><a href="#cite_note-40">[40]</a><a href="#cite_note-Ryan2018-41">[41]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Others">Others</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Methodology&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Others">edit</a>]</div> Various other classifications have been proposed. One distinguishes between substantive and formal methodologies. Substantive methodologies tend to focus on one specific area of inquiry. The findings are initially restricted to this specific field but may be transferrable to other areas of inquiry. Formal methodologies, on the other hand, are based on a variety of studies and try to arrive at more general principles applying to different fields. They may also give particular prominence to the analysis of the language of science and the formal structure of scientific explanation.<a href="#cite_note-Glaser1999-42">[42]</a><a href="#cite_note-Spirkin1983-16">[16]</a><a href="#cite_note-Rosenbaum2019-43">[43]</a> A closely related classification distinguishes between philosophical, general scientific, and special scientific methods.<a href="#cite_note-Spirkin1983-16">[16]</a><a href="#cite_note-Spirkin1990-44">[44]</a><a href="#cite_note-Oduor2010-17">[17]</a> One type of methodological outlook is called "proceduralism". According to it, the goal of methodology is to boil down the research process to a simple set of rules or a recipe that automatically leads to good research if followed precisely. However, it has been argued that, while this ideal may be acceptable for some forms of quantitative research, it fails for qualitative research. One argument for this position is based on the claim that research is not a technique but a craft that cannot be achieved by blindly following a method. In this regard, research depends on forms of creativity and improvisation to amount to good science.<a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a><a href="#cite_note-45">[45]</a><a href="#cite_note-46">[46]</a> Other types include inductive, deductive, and transcendental methods.<a href="#cite_note-MetzlerMethodologie-9">[9]</a> Inductive methods are common in the empirical sciences and proceed through <a href="/wiki/Inductive_reasoning" title="Inductive reasoning">inductive reasoning</a> from many particular observations to arrive at general conclusions, often in the form of universal laws.<a href="#cite_note-47">[47]</a> Deductive methods, also referred to as axiomatic methods, are often found in <a href="/wiki/Formal_science" title="Formal science">formal sciences</a>, such as <a href="/wiki/Geometry" title="Geometry">geometry</a>. They start from a set of self-evident <a href="/wiki/Axiom" title="Axiom">axioms</a> or first principles and use deduction to infer interesting conclusions from these axioms.<a href="#cite_note-48">[48]</a> <a href="/wiki/Transcendental_arguments" class="mw-redirect" title="Transcendental arguments">Transcendental methods</a> are common in <a href="/wiki/Kantian" class="mw-redirect" title="Kantian">Kantian</a> and <a href="/wiki/Post-Kantianism" class="mw-redirect" title="Post-Kantianism">post-Kantian</a> philosophy. They start with certain particular observations. It is then argued that the observed phenomena can only exist if their conditions of possibility are fulfilled. This way, the researcher may draw general psychological or metaphysical conclusions based on the claim that the phenomenon would not be observable otherwise.<a href="#cite_note-49">[49]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Importance">Importance</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Methodology&action=edit&section=9" title="Edit section: Importance">edit</a>]</div> It has been argued that a proper understanding of methodology is important for various issues in the field of research. They include both the problem of conducting efficient and reliable research as well as being able to validate knowledge claims by others.<a href="#cite_note-Herrman2009-3">[3]</a> Method is often seen as one of the main factors of <a href="/wiki/Scientific_progress" class="mw-redirect" title="Scientific progress">scientific progress</a>. This is especially true for the natural sciences where the <a href="/wiki/Scientific_Revolution" title="Scientific Revolution">developments of experimental methods in the 16th and 17th century</a> are often seen as the driving force behind the success and prominence of the natural sciences.<a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a> In some cases, the choice of methodology may have a severe impact on a research project. The reason is that very different and sometimes even opposite conclusions may follow from the same factual material based on the chosen methodology.<a href="#cite_note-Spirkin1983-16">[16]</a> Aleksandr Georgievich Spirkin argues that methodology, when understood in a wide sense, is of great importance since the world presents us with innumerable entities and relations between them.<a href="#cite_note-Spirkin1983-16">[16]</a> Methods are needed to simplify this complexity and find a way of mastering it. On the theoretical side, this concerns ways of forming true <a href="/wiki/Belief" title="Belief">beliefs</a> and solving problems. On the practical side, this concerns skills of influencing nature and dealing with each other. These different methods are usually passed down from one generation to the next. Spirkin holds that the interest in methodology on a more abstract level arose in attempts to formalize these techniques to improve them as well as to make it easier to use them and pass them on. In the field of research, for example, the goal of this process is to find reliable means to acquire knowledge in contrast to mere opinions acquired by unreliable means. In this regard, "methodology is a way of obtaining and building up ... knowledge".<a href="#cite_note-Spirkin1983-16">[16]</a><a href="#cite_note-Spirkin1990-44">[44]</a> Various theorists have observed that the interest in methodology has risen significantly in the 20th century.<a href="#cite_note-Spirkin1983-16">[16]</a><a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a> This increased interest is reflected not just in academic publications on the subject but also in the institutionalized establishment of training programs focusing specifically on methodology.<a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a> This phenomenon can be interpreted in different ways. Some see it as a positive indication of the topic's theoretical and practical importance. Others interpret this interest in methodology as an excessive preoccupation that draws time and energy away from doing research on concrete subjects by applying the methods instead of researching them. This ambiguous attitude towards methodology is sometimes even exemplified in the same person. <a href="/wiki/Max_Weber" title="Max Weber">Max Weber</a>, for example, criticized the focus on methodology during his time while making significant contributions to it himself.<a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a><a href="#cite_note-Finch2011-50">[50]</a> Spirkin believes that one important reason for this development is that contemporary society faces many global problems. These problems cannot be solved by a single researcher or a single discipline but are in need of collaborative efforts from many fields. Such interdisciplinary undertakings profit a lot from methodological advances, both concerning the ability to understand the methods of the respective fields and in relation to developing more homogeneous methods equally used by all of them.<a href="#cite_note-Spirkin1983-16">[16]</a><a href="#cite_note-51">[51]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Criticism">Criticism</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Methodology&action=edit&section=10" title="Edit section: Criticism">edit</a>]</div> Most criticism of methodology is directed at one specific form or understanding of it. In such cases, one particular methodological theory is rejected but not methodology at large when understood as a field of research comprising many different theories.<a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a><a href="#cite_note-Bryman2008-10">[10]</a> In this regard, many objections to methodology focus on the quantitative approach, specifically when it is treated as the only viable approach.<a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a><a href="#cite_note-Machlup1961-37">[37]</a> Nonetheless, there are also more fundamental criticisms of methodology in general. They are often based on the idea that there is little value to abstract discussions of methods and the reasons cited for and against them. In this regard, it may be argued that what matters is the correct employment of methods and not their meticulous study. <a href="/wiki/Sigmund_Freud" title="Sigmund Freud">Sigmund Freud</a>, for example, compared methodologists to "people who clean their glasses so thoroughly that they never have time to look through them".<a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a><a href="#cite_note-Woolf2017-52">[52]</a> According to <a href="/wiki/C._Wright_Mills" title="C. Wright Mills">C. Wright Mills</a>, the practice of methodology often degenerates into a "fetishism of method and technique".<a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a><a href="#cite_note-53">[53]</a> Some even hold that methodological reflection is not just a waste of time but actually has negative side effects. Such an argument may be defended by analogy to other <a href="/wiki/Skill" title="Skill">skills</a> that work best when the agent focuses only on employing them. In this regard, reflection may interfere with the process and lead to avoidable mistakes.<a href="#cite_note-OvergaardMethodology-54">[54]</a> According to an example by <a href="/wiki/Gilbert_Ryle" title="Gilbert Ryle">Gilbert Ryle</a>, "[w]e run, as a rule, worse, not better, if we think a lot about our feet".<a href="#cite_note-55">[55]</a><a href="#cite_note-OvergaardMethodology-54">[54]</a> A less severe version of this criticism does not reject methodology per se but denies its importance and rejects an intense focus on it. In this regard, methodology has still a limited and subordinate utility but becomes a diversion or even counterproductive by hindering practice when given too much emphasis.<a href="#cite_note-Chamberlain2000-56">[56]</a> Another line of criticism concerns more the general and abstract nature of methodology. It states that the discussion of methods is only useful in concrete and particular cases but not concerning abstract guidelines governing many or all cases. Some anti-methodologists reject methodology based on the claim that researchers need <a href="/wiki/Freedom" title="Freedom">freedom</a> to do their work effectively. But this freedom may be constrained and stifled by "inflexible and inappropriate guidelines". For example, according to <a href="/wiki/Kerry_Chamberlain" title="Kerry Chamberlain">Kerry Chamberlain</a>, a good interpretation needs <a href="/wiki/Creativity" title="Creativity">creativity</a> to be provocative and insightful, which is prohibited by a strictly codified approach. Chamberlain uses the neologism "methodolatry" to refer to this alleged overemphasis on methodology.<a href="#cite_note-Chamberlain2000-56">[56]</a><a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a> Similar arguments are given in <a href="/wiki/Paul_Feyerabend" title="Paul Feyerabend">Paul Feyerabend</a>'s book "<a href="/wiki/Against_Method" title="Against Method">Against Method</a>".<a href="#cite_note-Feyerabend1993-57">[57]</a><a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a> However, these criticisms of methodology in general are not always accepted. Many methodologists defend their craft by pointing out how the efficiency and reliability of research can be improved through a proper understanding of methodology.<a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a><a href="#cite_note-Bryman2008-10">[10]</a> A criticism of more specific forms of methodology is found in the works of the sociologist <a href="/wiki/Howard_S._Becker" title="Howard S. Becker">Howard S. Becker</a>. He is quite critical of methodologists based on the claim that they usually act as advocates of one particular method usually associated with quantitative research.<a href="#cite_note-Bryman2008-10">[10]</a> An often-cited quotation in this regard is that "[m]ethodology is too important to be left to methodologists".<a href="#cite_note-58">[58]</a><a href="#cite_note-Bryman2008-10">[10]</a><a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a> <a href="/wiki/Alan_Bryman" title="Alan Bryman">Alan Bryman</a> has rejected this negative outlook on methodology. He holds that Becker's criticism can be avoided by understanding methodology as an inclusive inquiry into all kinds of methods and not as a mere doctrine for converting non-believers to one's preferred method.<a href="#cite_note-Bryman2008-10">[10]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="In_different_fields">In different fields</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Methodology&action=edit&section=11" title="Edit section: In different fields">edit</a>]</div> Part of the importance of methodology is reflected in the number of fields to which it is relevant.

Strictly speaking, there is no one single scientific method. In this regard, the expression "scientific method" refers not to one specific procedure but to different general or abstract methodological aspects characteristic of all the aforementioned fields. Important features are that the problem is formulated in a clear manner and that the evidence presented for or against a theory is public, reliable, and replicable. The last point is important so that other researchers are able to repeat the experiments to <a href="/wiki/Scientific_method#Confirmation" title="Scientific method">confirm</a> or disconfirm the initial study.<a href="#cite_note-Hatfield1996-8">[8]</a><a href="#cite_note-BritannicaScientificMethod-60">[60]</a><a href="#cite_note-Hepburn2021-61">[61]</a> For this reason, various factors and variables of the situation often have to be controlled to avoid distorting influences and to ensure that subsequent measurements by other researchers yield the same results.<a href="#cite_note-Hammersley2010-14">[14]</a> The scientific method is a quantitative approach that aims at obtaining numerical data. This data is often described using mathematical formulas. The goal is usually to arrive at some universal generalizations that apply not just to the artificial situation of the experiment but to the world at large. Some data can only be acquired using advanced measurement instruments. In cases where the data is very complex, it is often necessary to employ sophisticated statistical techniques to draw conclusions from it.<a href="#cite_note-Hatfield1996-8">[8]</a><a href="#cite_note-BritannicaScientificMethod-60">[60]</a><a href="#cite_note-Hepburn2021-61">[61]</a> The scientific method is often broken down into several steps. In a typical case, the procedure starts with regular observation and the collection of information. These findings then lead the scientist to formulate a <a href="/wiki/Hypothesis" title="Hypothesis">hypothesis</a> describing and explaining the observed phenomena. The next step consists in conducting an <a href="/wiki/Experiment" title="Experiment">experiment</a> designed for this specific hypothesis. The actual results of the experiment are then compared to the expected results based on one's hypothesis. The findings may then be interpreted and published, either as a confirmation or disconfirmation of the initial hypothesis.<a href="#cite_note-BritannicaScientificMethod-60">[60]</a><a href="#cite_note-Hatfield1996-8">[8]</a><a href="#cite_note-Hepburn2021-61">[61]</a> Two central aspects of the scientific method are <a href="/wiki/Observation" title="Observation">observation</a> and <a href="/wiki/Experimentation" class="mw-redirect" title="Experimentation">experimentation</a>.<a href="#cite_note-Hatfield1996-8">[8]</a> This distinction is based on the idea that experimentation involves some form of manipulation or intervention.<a href="#cite_note-Malik-62">[62]</a><a href="#cite_note-63">[63]</a><a href="#cite_note-64">[64]</a><a href="#cite_note-Howell2012-13-4">[4]</a> This way, the studied phenomena are actively created or shaped. For example, a biologist inserting viral <a href="/wiki/DNA" title="DNA">DNA</a> into a bacterium is engaged in a form of experimentation.

The core disagreement between these two approaches concerns their understanding of the confirmation of scientific theories.

This approach often takes a negative form based on falsification. In this regard, positive instances do not confirm a hypothesis but negative instances disconfirm it.

Researchers can use this method to collect data based on the interactions and responses of the participants. The interview often starts by asking the participants about their opinions on the topic under investigation, which may, in turn, lead to a free exchange in which the group members express and discuss their personal views. An important advantage of focus groups is that they can provide insight into how ideas and understanding operate in a cultural context.

The group often consists of experts in the field in question. The group size is similar but the interaction between the participants is more structured. The goal is to determine how much agreement there is among the experts on the different issues. The initial responses are often given in written form by each participant without a prior conversation between them. In this manner, group effects potentially influencing the expressed opinions are minimized. In later steps, the different responses and comments may be discussed and compared to each other by the group as a whole.<a href="#cite_note-Powell1996-30">[30]</a><a href="#cite_note-83">[83]</a><a href="#cite_note-84">[84]</a> Most of these forms of data collection involve some type of <a href="/wiki/Observation" title="Observation">observation</a>.

For example, the difference between synthetic and analytic methods is that the former start from the known and proceed to the unknown while the latter seek to find a path from the unknown to the known. <a href="/wiki/Geometry" title="Geometry">Geometry</a> textbooks often proceed using the synthetic method. They start by listing known <a href="/wiki/Definition" title="Definition">definitions</a> and <a href="/wiki/Axiom" title="Axiom">axioms</a> and proceed by taking <a href="/wiki/Inference" title="Inference">inferential steps</a>, one at a time, until the solution to the initial problem is found. An important advantage of the synthetic method is its clear and short logical exposition. One disadvantage is that it is usually not obvious in the beginning that the steps taken lead to the intended conclusion. This may then come as a surprise to the reader since it is not explained how the mathematician knew in the beginning which steps to take. The analytic method often reflects better how mathematicians actually make their discoveries. For this reason, it is often seen as the better method for teaching mathematics. It starts with the intended conclusion and tries to find another formula from which it can be deduced. It then goes on to apply the same process to this new formula until it has traced back all the way to already proven theorems. The difference between the two methods concerns primarily how mathematicians think and present their <a href="/wiki/Mathematical_proof" title="Mathematical proof">proofs</a>.
