Abstract
Els darrers anys, des de l'àmbit de la recerca pedagògica, ha existit la necessitat implícita d'emmarcar una tesi o article sota l'aixopluc d'un dels tres paradigmes clàssics de la racionalitat científica (positivista, interpretatiu i sociocrític). Els discursos educatius han estat prenyats de contínues referències als paradigmes científics, destacant-ne les seves excel·lències o limitacions en funció de cada ideologia. Aquest fet pot destorbar la preocupació científica real en el temor de sentir-se etiquetat: vincular la recerca a un únic paradigma pot comportar una lectura prete-sament esbiaixada del contingut. En aquesta línia de pensament, assumir el model de camp per a la investigació en pedagogia, permet no haver de passar pel sedàs d'una elecció que pot resul-tar artificiosa i rebutjar també un actuar eclèctic que no seria més que una assumpció selectiva del concepte 'paradigma'.
| Translated title of the contribution | Scientific paradigms in education research and the psychological field model : In recent years in education research, there has been an implicit need to frame a thesis or article under the umbrella of one of the three classical paradigms of scientific rationality (positivist, interpretive and socio-critical). Educational discourse has been peppered with conti-nuous references to the scientific paradigms, and their limitations or excellence has been hig-hlighted depending on the ideology. This may interfere with real scientific concerns, due to the fear of being labelled: if research is linked to one paradigm, the interpretation of its content may be biased from the outset. In this line of thought, if researchers adopt a field model for education research, they can avoid making a choice that may be contrived and reject an eclec-tic method that is no more than a selective assumption of the “paradigm” concept. |
