Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Progress in the social sciences entails developing and improving theoretical understanding of social phenomena and improving methods for collecting and analyzing data. Theories organize what we know or expect to learn about phenomena and methods provide the evidential basis for the theories. While we have witnessed great strides in the development of statistical methods, there is less information for developing theories. In Developing Theories in the Social Sciences, Jane Sell and Murray Webster Jr. describe an approach for logical, consistent, and useful explanatory theories for social scientists. They emphasize properly defining concepts to embed in theoretical propositions, while providing guidelines for avoiding missteps that can occur, including imprecise definitions, incomplete assumptions, and missing scope conditions. Offering examples from different disciplines, the authors propose a structured method vital for building and refining theories about social phenomena. This book describes an approach for developing logical, consistent, and useful explanatory theories for social scientists. It emphasizes carefully defining concepts and embedding them in theoretical propositions leading to derivations useful for testing and extending the theory. Contemporary examples from different social sciences are featured. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
