In the social sciences, triangulation refers to the application and combination of several research methods in the study of the same phenomenon. [1] By combining multiple observers, theories, methods, and empirical materials, researchers hope to overcome the weakness or intrinsic biases and the problems that come from single method, single-observer, and single-theory studies.
The discourse about postqualitative inquiry arose from the question of “what comes next for qualitative research," [6] particularly regarding how to approach "a problem in the midst of inquiry” [7] in a way that allows new ideas to take shape from preconceived ones. St. Pierre suggested that being restricted to method conforms new research to the form of existing research, hindering ...
Triangulation is a term in psychology most closely associated with the work of Murray Bowen known as family therapy. [ unreliable source? ] Bowen theorized that a two-person emotional system is unstable, in that under stress it forms itself into a three-person system or triangle.
Hillegass hired literature teachers to condense works of literature into concise summaries, commentaries, author biographies and character analyses. In the 1960s, as his own writers revised the summaries of Shakespearian plays, Hillegass eliminated the Cole's Notes versions. [3] By 1964, sales reached one million Notes annually.
Grounded theory combines traditions in positivist philosophy, general sociology, and, particularly, the symbolic interactionist branch of sociology.According to Ralph, Birks and Chapman, [9] grounded theory is "methodologically dynamic" [7] in the sense that, rather than being a complete methodology, grounded theory provides a means of constructing methods to better understand situations ...
Interdisciplinary teaching is a method, or set of methods, used to teach across curricular disciplines or "the bringing together of separate disciplines around common themes, issues, or problems.” [1] Often interdisciplinary instruction is associated with or a component of several other instructional approaches.
Triangulation today is used for many purposes, including surveying, navigation, metrology, astrometry, binocular vision, model rocketry and, in the military, the gun direction, the trajectory and distribution of fire power of weapons. The use of triangles to estimate distances dates to antiquity.
A shift or translation functor on a category D is an additive automorphism (or for some authors, an auto-equivalence) from D to D.It is common to write [] = for integers n.. A triangle (X, Y, Z, u, v, w) consists of three objects X, Y, and Z, together with morphisms :, : and : [].
