Sociology seeks neither correct nor true meaning of social action, which is the realm of normative disciplines and not of empirical science. It may be either direct or explanatory character. It requires a grasp of the meaning-context of an understandable action.
Interpretation is either rational or empathic character.
Construction of an ideal type serves for clarity of interpretation. Adequacy Of Meaning is the typical inter-relationships between the meaning and the action. Adequacy Of Causal Relationship is the probability that the action will always actually occur in the same relationship. Correct Causal Interpretation is the correct apprehension of the action and the motives through meaningful comprehension of its causal relationship and the demonstration of its existence. Objectivity is the universal understanding of a social action which is based on the combination of adequate interpretation of motivation and its empirical verification.
