The Philosophy of Quantitative Methods focuses on the conceptual
foundations of research methods within the behavioral sciences. In
particular, it undertakes a close philosophical examination of a
variety of quantitative research methods that are prominent in (or
relevant for) the conduct of research in these fields. By doing so,
the deep structure of these methods is examined in order to
overcome the non-critical approaches typically found in the
existing literature today. In this book, Brian D. Haig focuses on
the more well-known research methods such as exploratory data
analysis, statistical significant testing, Bayesian confirmation
theory and statistics, meta-analysis, and exploratory factor
analysis. These methods are then examined with a philosophy
consistent of scientific realism. In addition, each chapter
provides a helpful Further Reading section in order to better
assist the reader in extending their own thinking and research
methods specific to their needs.
