+ | 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. | ||
