Thank you, thank you, thank you! I am a PhD student and have felt for a long time that everyone was throwing around these terms but never really explained them, and trying to search for answers always required me to understand a whole load of other words that no one had ever explained during my prior 2 degrees. This video has finally made it click for me and I really appreciate you having taken the time to make this!
As a PhD student this has been helpful. Especially as I start off my program - often it feels like it is assumed students know this these things hence they are under explained so I appreciate that this helps clarify and make sure I know I'm having the right understanding.
your videos have been an amazing help to me on my journey in studying Sociology as a graduate student. You make things simple, clear, and concise - thank you
Am I the only one out here who has read and watched basically all videos and webpages on epistemology and ontology out there over a whole bachelor and master degree's time and still doesn't get it? 😅🤔 Now aing't that worth a degree in and of itself...
very good at easy grasping explanation. But your angle ( camera view- high angle) is totally disturbing to attention. So, I suggest why do not you use a law angle camera or just a medium shot angle. think about the audience-oriented communication on video communication. other than that this is very very helpful. go on. salute.
A great explanation, thank you very much. I have a question after listening to your lecture. Can we assume that positivist approach is quantitative design or method of research and interpretivism is qualitative?
positivism and interpretivism are indeed often associated with quantitative and qualitative designs , respectively. However, there still may be a qualitative study that leans towards positivism, so this is not to say that this would be completely impossible
Thank you for the video does Anti-Essentialism and interpretivism cancel each other out I am trying to apply Anti-Essentialism theory to my research however, my research Research Epistemological Approach has some positivist/interpretivism footing.
I'm afraid I don't know Ken, I'm not That smart! :) I have never heard about this one. I suppose it depends on whether it is an overall philosophy or one of the -isms. If it's the former, it is ok to say that your views draw from both Interpretivism and Anti-Essentialism, if that is the case. Remember that, at the end of the day, you are talking about Your worldview. If you convincingly demonstrate what that worldview is, it would be very hard for someone to criticize it or argue that these 2 do not match each other. This is my advice, I wish I could help more !
Thanks Dr for the explanation, well i have question regarding mixed method approach, May i know what research paradigm is for MM? If positivism is objective, interpretivism is subjective, while MM is the combination of those two approach?
This is a very good question, and one that has been causing a lot of debate, so there is definitely no way to answer it briefly and quickly, but other worldviews have been suggested to be more suitable here, such as realism or pragmatism. Pragmatism, for example, is a very practical paradigm aimed at doing "whatever works" in a given situation, and it is thought to be a flexible combination of beliefs traditionally characteristic to both interpretivism and positivism. However, as I said, to understand the situation better I would suggest you to do some reading on the current debates (but only if you have to - to me, these debates are mostly a waste of time)
Qualitative Researcher Many thanks for the replied Dr, I asked my methodology courses lecturer before but i still didn't understand it. I'm aware of "read more", however here is the problem.. the more i read the more i get confused-(Maybe i was not on the right path). That is why i always scrolling a reliable explanation about research methodology on youtube. Keep on sharing this precious knowledge because your videos really help me preparing for my proposal defense soon! Wish me luck! 😊

thank you so much i can now defend my sample size of 16 participants
glad to hear that - also, I have a video specifically about sample size and how to justify it ! :) hopefully it will be useful
do you have a comparison between constructivism and interoperation in ontology, epistemology.. or do you have links that explains the differences ?
Great content!! Thanks! And about construtivism?
Hi Eliane, I will definitely consider recording a video about it, thank you for the idea and the positive feedback
@@qualitativeresearcher Thanks a lot! I am very curios to watch it!!

learn to get straight to the point
LOL. Is summarizing ontology, epistemology, positivism and intepretivism in 8 minutes not "straight to the point" enough? :)
@@qualitativeresearcher That was really clear, concise and to the point. Thank you. Greetings!
