 +# Doing research intensive week
 +
 +## Latour / Science in Action
 +
 +Science as a form of argumentation. Referring to research, binding yourself to a network as a rhetoric. ​
 +// Seems like there is a whole other network created for climate change denial which is not the scientific one, perhaps a social media one, and that one also has a good rhetoric. ​
 +
 +Water flow on a terrain metaphor. Research has set a brick wall to some flow directions. But the terrain can also change (the empirical reality) and erode those walls. Over decades the opinion aligns with the landscape (water canal is formed).
 +
 +## Positioning research to audience
 +Instrumental reason , who are the target research audience / journals? // Maybe my instrumental reason is just '​using'​ those methods to get the social change out.
 +
 +What is new?
 + - Adding to line of research
 + - Disproving key data
 + - Showing by research what "all already knows" is not done before (validate an axiom with research).
 + - Introducing an idea of framework not known to the field 
 +
 +If you link to the wrong community, the new is not considered new.
 +
 +Positioning can be implicit; Even the sentence structure implies on the position, using short sentences in natural sciences, longer in economy and much longer in humanities. ​
 +
 +Positionining can be completely explicit; State exactly where you work, who you want to influence, what is more relevant and what is less.
 +
 +**60/20/20 PhD (or even 80/10/5)**
 +
 + - 60% build on old research
 + - 20% appropriate other research by analogy.
 + - 20% novelty.
 +
 +Clever research: say as much as possible by saying as little as possible, using positioning yourself correctly in other people'​s work.
 +
 +## Field research
 +
 +1. Monotone description of what happened
 +2. Interpretation
 +3. Reflection
 +
 +Background research and theory keep interplaying,​ careful not continue down inductive rabbit holes.
 +
 +**Path finding checks:** Are theoretical constructs and/or research questions finding correlates in the empirical field?
 +
 +## Theory-Data relationship
 +Kurt Lewin: _"​There is no nothing more practical as a good theory"​_ (it guides the practice).
 + 
 + - Capital T theory: Encompassing,​ intentional,​ conceptual system (Newtonian physics, evolution theory..)
 + - theory / theorizing: forming concepts and articulating relationships to better discuss empirical phenomena. ​
 +
 +// One rather abstract and broad question: Do you think that in every type of theory, even the super specific analysis of slices of of flesh in rodents, we should attach a deduction/​induction into why having this theory my contribute to social and moral good.
 +
 +## Types of theory
 +1) "​What":​
 + - Naming theory, description of the dimensions and characteristics of some phenomena. ​
 + - Classification:​ More elaborate naming with some structural relations (typologies,​ taxonomies, frameworks)
 +
 +2) "​How"​ and "​Why"​ theories for understanding
 +
 + - Defamiliarizing (deconstructing)
 + - Sensitizing ​
 + - Conjectures from real world situations
 +
 +3) "What will be", theories for predicting.
 +
 +
 +4) "How to do" design and action theories
 +
 +// My article: counts as "​toward"​ a theory.
 +
 +## Sampling
 +How to get representative population? Has to mirror to compound of the population.
