Dialectical Scientific Method

A scientific approach that treats contradiction and conflict as engines of discovery rather than obstacles to be eliminated. Drawing from Hegelian dialectics, this method assumes that every thesis (a hypothesis) generates its antithesis (competing evidence or interpretation), and progress comes from the synthesis that resolves the tension—only for that synthesis to become a new thesis facing its own antithesis. It's science as an endless argument that actually goes somewhere. Unlike the linear "hypothesis-test-conclude" model, the Dialectical Method expects to be wrong, incorporates opposition as fuel, and understands that truth emerges from the clash of partial perspectives rather than from a single clean experiment.

"My research group isn't fighting—we're doing Dialectical Scientific Method! Her data is the thesis, my counter-interpretation is the antithesis, and whoever storms out first loses the right to craft the synthesis. This is how knowledge advances!"

Dynamic Scientific Method

A framework for scientific inquiry that treats methods themselves as variables that evolve during the research process, rather as fixed procedures applied mechanically. The Dynamic Method acknowledges that as you learn more about your subject, you must adjust your tools, questions, and approaches. It's the difference between following a recipe and improvising a dish as you taste it. This approach is essential for truly novel territory where no established protocol exists—you don't know what you're looking for until you start finding it, and you don't know how to look until you've seen something.

"We started with surveys, but the data was garbage, so we switched to interviews, which revealed we were asking the wrong questions entirely. Now we're doing ethnography. That's not bad design—that's Dynamic Scientific Method. Adapt or die."

Methods of Study in the Social Sciences

The notoriously messy toolkit used to study human behavior, which refuses to sit still for clean measurement like chemicals or cells. These methods include surveys (asking people what they do, getting what they say they do), interviews (asking deeply, getting complicated stories), ethnography (living with people until they forget you're watching), statistical analysis (finding patterns in chaos), and case studies (going deep on one thing, sacrificing breadth). Unlike physics, social science methods must grapple with reflexive subjects who change when studied, cultural contexts that shift meaning, and the small problem that the researchers are also humans with biases. It's science, but science with feelings.

"I tried to apply the Methods of Study in the Social Sciences to my family Thanksgiving. Let's just say participant observation gets awkward when your participants know you're observing and demand to know what you're writing."
