All psychological processes like biological and social ones are
dynamic. Phenomena of nature, society, and the human psyche are
context bound, constantly changing, and variable. This feature of
reality is often not recognized in the social sciences where we
operate with averaged data and with homogeneous stereotypes, and
consider our consistency to be the cornerstone of rational being.
Yet we are all inconsistent in our actions within a day, or from,
one day to the next, and much of such inconsistency is of positive
value for our survival and development. Our inconsistent behaviors
and thoughts may appear chaotic, yet there is generality within
this highly variable dynamic.
The task of scientific methodologies qualitative and
quantitative is to find out what that generality is. It is the aim
of this handbook to bring into one framework various directions of
construction of methodology of the dynamic processes that exist in
the social sciences at the beginning of the 21st century. This
handbook is set up to bring together pertinent methodological
scholarship from all over the world, and equally from the
quantitative and qualitative orientations to methodology. In
addition to consolidating the pertinent knowledge base for the
purposes of its further growth, this book serves the major
educational role of bringing practitioners students, researchers,
and professionals interested in applications the state of the art
know-how about how to think about extracting evidence from single
cases, and about the formal mathematical-statistical tools to use
for these purposes."
