...classifications: quantitative, qualitative, epistemology, and ontology all have variances but do contain several interconnected qualities. Many in higher education perpetuate these philosophies. Could researchers and students benefit from a standardized and more structured template for conducting research? Should there be a different standard for the social sciences and another for natural sciences. According to a study conducted with PhD students in North West Universities in the UK, not only did students not completely comprehend philosophy and classifications, they did not find them necessary in finding their approach to their research method (Mkansi & Acheampong, 2012). Most found they were not partial to one philosophy or another based on personal beliefs but were influenced more by typical methods for their field of study and the opinions of their superiors (Mkansi & Acheampong, 2012). The study showed that most of the students agree that an agreed upon and clear standard framework for research in their particular field would be of great benefit in future research. This finding does raise the question, could future research in the sciences and education be improved if philosophical views and classifications are more concise and reorganized? If this unique prospect...

...The economics profession’s jargon serves a variety of purposes. For example, their common terminology serves to make for more precise communication. It allows ideas to be communicated clearly and exactly. This exactness and clarity of terminology serves society by allowing economists to discuss economics with each other and with society with clarity so that other economists have a better understanding of what an economist is saying. A common terminology also serves to divide insiders from outsiders. For outsiders, for example economic students, who do not have a clue what these terms mean, economists’ terminology is exclusionary. It makes economists the gatekeepers of economic ideas. Economists’ terminology serves as a barrier to entry, restricting the supply of economists, and increasing the value of the services provided by existing economists. Which of these two reasons is the strongest? To answer that question let us consider two examples given by Amanda Bennett, the author of The Wall Street Journal article, “Economists + Meeting = A Zillion Causes and Effects” [The Wall Street Journal, January 10, 1995]. The two examples are the concepts of externality and utility, Why do economists use these terms? Based on her article, and on my classroom experience, I would judge that, of the two reasons, the self-serving reason is the stronger. Essentially, economists create their terminology primarily to make life difficult for students. Consider the first example: externality. Why...

...Essay on the Scope of Political Science by Suhana Dhawan There is no general agreement on the nature and scope of Political Science, “the master science” as Aristotle described it, since there is no generally accepted definition of the discipline, and its organising concept the State. The definitions of both Political Science and the State, the latter in particular, reveal the bias of the thinkers, for example, the metaphysical (Hegel), the juridical (Austin), the sociological (Maclver), the descriptive (Garner) and many others with their own distinctive labels. In fact, there are as many definitions as there are writers on the subject and all these definitions give to the entity — the State — different meanings and conflicting roles. This tendency continues even now though in a slightly different form. “The recent definitions of politics (as a study),” writes Frank Thakurdas, “are not so much cast in the discipline of the thinker (easily detectable) but in the conceptual framework that he has worked out in advance (as it were) the basic presupposition of his personal manner of interpreting the complete phenomenon of politics. But also including the ‘purpose’ that the studies involve in terms of the practical ends they sub serve.” Some writers restrict the scope of Political Science to the study of the State alone, for example, Bluntschli. All such writers exclude the study of government from the scope of Political Science, for the State for them obviously includes the study...

...non-physical objects. The physical ones are defined by people as goods (food, clothes, houses, etc.), the non-physical by services (education, health care, entertainment). To satisfy human needs and wants we need resources, which unfortunately are scarce. This scarcity leads the economists to making choices on what to produce, how to produce and for whom, also it is very important to avoid resource wasting as much as possible. This is one of the sources of all the conflicts between them. It is important because it is directly related to people and their lives. The other reason is that economics is a social science based on theories rather than hypothesis. Social science means that it deals with human society and behavior, how people organize their activities and what they do to satisfy their needs and wants. Social science’s approach to studying human society is based on the social scientific method. There are four main aspects of economists’ disagreement. They include the importance of the economic growth and the economic development; how sustainability should be achieved in economics; whether the government intervention is necessary in creating the most efficient market or not; and how equity and efficiency affect each other, and if equity adds any complications. In further paragraphs you will find the evaluations of those problems that I will try to make. First of all, the economists deal with the problem of economic growth and economic development. The economic growth...

...step-by-step record of the search process. It’s part research paper, part personal narrative, part reflection. • First step: choose a controversial topic broadly pertaining to digital technology, digital media, “the internet,” television, or modern computing technology that truly interests you—specifically some problem or concern you want to be more informed about (use Homework #1 as a launching point). The topic, however, has to be argumentatively rich, meaning that there have to be many different viewpoints on the issue. • Second step: rather than starting with a thesis or claim, you’re going to begin with a question or problem spurred by some personal experience or exploration. Think of yourself like an investigative journalist or social scientist: if you’re writing about online communities, immerse yourself in one; if you’re writing about internet/television/cell phone addiction, deprive yourself for a few days; if you’re investigating some activity, try engaging in that activity; etc. You’re trying to get the heart of a controversy by gaining first-hand experience. • Third step: start researching. As you research, keep track of what you know and what you learn about the topic, how your assumptions change, and how different sources affect your perspective on your personal experiences and other sources. If you take copious notes during this step, these will...

...MBA – V Date : 9th July, 2012 Abstract: This study covers different disciplines that affect the discipline of organizational behavior. Disciplines like psychology, sociology, anthropology, etc are self acclaimed disciplines that contribute to the study of organizational behavior and they determine how an individual would behave in a scenario. It also includes mention of a case study to determine corporate psychological defenses, which explains how organizations try to avoid charges even if it’s their fault. This term paper discusses how different attributes of organizational behavior are affected by disciplines of different nature. Key words: Interdisciplinary, Organizational Behavior, Psychology, Sociology, Social Psychology, Anthropology, Management, Political Science, Medicine. 1 Introduction: 1. Meaning & Definitions: Organizational Behavior is a systematic study of the actions and attitudes that people exhibit within organizations, according to P G Aquinas (2006). This study is basically concerned with the psychosocial, interpersonal, and behavioral dynamics in organizations. The term ‘Organizational behavior’ is defined by Stephen P Robbins as “a field of study that investigates the impact of individuals, groups and structures on behavior within organizations for the purpose of applying such knowledge towards improving on Organization’s effectiveness”. According to Keith Davis, “organizational behavior is an academic discipline concerned with understanding and describing...

...the program in achieving its broad range of development goals, to raise agricultural productivity, to improve health and nutrition, to increase literacy and to increase Vicosinos' sense of self-worth. The project did not have a significant impact on values or on the traditional world view. During that five year period from 1951-1956, the Vicos community changed from one of drastic under the rule of a "sponsor," to that of an independent, self-governing and economically practical community Under Allan R. Holmberg's strong leadership, the Cornell Peru Project introduced primary education, modern agricultural techniques and government by consent to "Vicosinos." At the same time, the former hacienda became something of a laboratory for social science research. Studying the effects enabled him to advance anthropological understanding of community change processes. The population was surveyed psychologically, physiologically, and economically. Holmberg believed that the quality of life at Vicos could be measurably improved with the integration of the hacienda into the national economy and society. He planned a series of activities designed to reverse a negative spiral of effects suppressing the Indian population. He sought to increase literacy, to familiarize Vicosinos with the larger society, to encourage migration, to raise agricultural productivity, to improve health and nutrition, and to increase “Vicosinos” sense of self-worth, and their faith in progress and each other.

...collection of disciplines referred to as the Humanities are a broad set of academic principles essentially defined as “anything that isn’t an empirical science.” This includes the classics, languages, law, history, performing arts, literature, religion, philosophy, and visual arts. Some disciplines, such as anthropology and linguistics, are considered to be a part of both the humanities and the sciences (Anissimov, 2010). On September 29, 1965, the Senate and House of Representatives enacted the National Foundation on the Arts and Humanities Act of 1965 to promote progress and scholarship in the humanities and the arts in the United States as well as for other purposes (National Endowment for the Humanities, 2010). The purpose of this paper is to define the term humanities, distinguish the humanities from other modes of human inquiry and expression, and give an example of some of the humanities and explain why each example reflects current developments in politics, socioeconomics, and technology. In the Middle Ages, studies not centered on God were referred to as part of the humanities; therefore, early sciences and mathematics were part of the humanities. Today the sciences are completely separate and are divided into two main categories: Social sciences and natural sciences. Humanities differentiates itself from present-day sciences by following a non- scientific approach in that the scientific mode of inquiry, where the goal is to establish validated theories and scientific laws...
