Drawing on biographical interviews with the protagonists of qualitative social science research in the Czech Republic, this article retraces the evolution of the qualitative approach before & after 1989 & presents in greater detail six major research projects conducted in the post-communist era. It takes a special interest in how the actors view their own work & offers a comparison of these investigations with "western scientific method." It examines the various levels of ties that exist between qualitative research & the field studied, underscores the interrelation between the researchers' stance & the agenda of research topics as well as the form of loyalty that takes shape toward the field over the course of research, & then the choices that are made as the findings it produces are interpreted. Adapted from the source document.

In: Measurement Methods for the Social Science Ser.
How can social scientists assess the reliability of the measures derived from tests and questionnaires? Through an illustrative review of the principles of classical reliability theory, Ross E Traub explores some general strategies for improving measurement procedures. Beginning with a presentation of random variables and the expected value of a random variable, the book covers such topics as: the definition of reliability as a coefficient and possible uses of a coefficient; the notion of parallel tests so as to make possible the estimation of a reliability coefficient for a set of measurements; what to do when parallel tests are not available; what factors affect the reliability coefficient; and how to estimate the.

In: Schriftenreihe zur Philosophie Karl R. Poppers und des Kritischen Rationalismus 15
This book offers a careful re-reading of Popper's classic falsificationist demarcation of science, stressing its institutional aspects. Popper's social thinking about science, individuals, institutions, and rationality is tracked through The Poverty of Historicism and The Open Society and Its Enemies as he criticises and improves his earlier work. New links are established between the works of the 1935-1945 period, revealing them as a source for criticism of the institutions and governance of science

This article reviews references of ethnography as a method in the social sciences gathered by using Google™, EBSCO, ProQuest, REDALYC, PSICODOC, Dialnet and LATINDEX. Anthropologists' postmodern self-critique has influenced social scientists and ethnography has increasingly become a way to explore our forms of life. This translates into a perspective that responds to ethical, political, cultural, and social concerns about the production of knowledge. It seeks to excise the distance between researchers, often by collaborating with consultants in research projects. The ensuing reflections evoke possibilities generated from interactions in the field and an appreciation of a complexity that poses methodological challenges for researchers who see the field as a space from which they cannot be extricated. ; Este artigo revisa as referências que falam sobre etnografia como metodologia e que foram recopilados através de Google™, EBSCO, ProQuest, REDALYC, PSICODOC, Dialnet e LATINDEX. A autocrítica dos antropólogos chegou a influenciar os cientistas sociais e a etnografia cresceu como uma maneira de explorar nossas formas de vida. Isso se traduz em uma perspectiva que responde às preocupações éticas, políticas, culturais e sociais acerca da produção de conhecimento. É uma perspectiva que trata de evitar a distância entre os investigadores e que costuma constituir-se em projetos de investigação colaborativa com consultores. As reflexões resultantes desta perspectiva evocam possibilidades geradas nas interações no campo e de uma apreciação de uma complexidade que suscita desafios metodológicos para os investigadores que vem o campo como um espaço a partir do qual não podem ser arrancados. ; Este artículo pasa revista las referencias que versan sobre etnografia como una metodología y que fueron recopilados a través de Google™, EBSCO, ProQuest, REDALYC, PSICODOC, Dialnet y LATINDEX.
