Research epistemology: Fact and fiction

Often, research epistemology and method are discussed without awareness of the historical and philosophical findings on the multivarious forms and limitations of the scientific method. This workshop will start with a very brief mention of these limitations to then focus on the distinctions of qualitative and quantitative methods, emphasizing research on conscious experience.

This workshop is by invitation and enrollment only.

The event takes place partly in real life at Inter Arts Center, partly virtually.

The afternoon part of this event is BY INVITATION ONLY. If you would like to be considered for an invitation to this event, please send an email to research@thm.lu.se.
