This collective volume provides a comprehensive overview of research methodology in the field of humanities and social sciences.
It covers a wide range of theoretical as well as practical research approaches in the sciences of education, training, sociology, psychology, and other sciences.
The two main methodological models in research, quantitative and qualitative models, are analyzed from multiple angles. The stages of research are presented from a scientific perspective, from the formulation of the research question, the study design, and the literature review to the collection, analysis, and interpretation of data and results.
Particular emphasis is given to the different methods of data collection, such as questionnaires, interviews, experiments, and text analysis, as well as the techniques for processing and interpreting findings.
At the same time, critical issues such as ethical dilemmas and the ethical implications of research, issues of validity and reliability of scientific studies, as well as contemporary developments in research methodology and the pursuit of truth are examined.
