I think this view is only partly correct. As I will argue in this lecture, in most cases, the main methodological differences between disciplines can be traced to the materials and structures of particular fields of study. That is, differences in research methods typically reflect concrete differences between fields rather than reflecting a basic difference in philosophical outlook. Philosophy of knowledge and methodology inform each other. Methodology, more than philosophy, should be continually considered in both the sciences and in the humanities.
All interpretations are equally valid.
Conclusion Methodologies should be chosen with their characteristics in mind. There is no methodological algorithm that ensures the advance of knowledge. Methodology consists primarily of a set of pointers that warn scholars of previously encountered pitfalls. Methodologies are extended and refined in the same manner as other theories.
