“…Muszą -wykorzystując myślenie -wyjaśnić, dlaczego ta powierzchnia rzeczywistości przedstawia się w taki właśnie sposób. Dzięki temu mogą dojść do odkrycia naukowego, czyli wysunięcia przypuszczeń (hipotez) odnośnie zależności przyczynowo-skutkowych między tym, co jest dostrzegalne zmysłowo, a tym, co prawdopodobnie decyduje o widocznych atrybutach rzeczywistości (Sintonen, Kiikri, 2004). Informacje percepcyjne wykorzystywane są więc do tworzenia pełniejszego (uwzględniającego to, co jest niedostrzegalne) obrazu rzeczywistości, ale są niewystarczające.…”

Global social order calls for more and more knowledge of applicable character. As a result, medicine developed certain procedures known as evidence-based research and evidence-based practice. Both procedures are promoted with great intensity in the domain of social sciences. The article demonstrates that such a type of modernisation may pose a threat to social sciences and their development. An alternative model of conducting research in the field of social sciences has been presented, which would guarantee an increase in the regulatory scientific knowledge in relation to the practice and which, at the same time, would protect social sciences against excessive political and economic interference in its further development.

“…In October 1978 hardcore physicists,cognitive psychologists,historians of science and philosophers of science across the globe assembled at the University of Nevada, Reno to review and discuss various philosophical issues of scientific discovery.In this historical conference, "the simplistic dichotomy between discovery and justification was rejected, and it was acknowledged that discovery can either refer narrowly to original generation or broadly to the process which starts with generation (or even before) and ends up with final acceptance" ( Sintonen and Kiikeri 2004). The serious deliberations in the conference enabled them to recognize the need and importance of multidisciplinary investigations and the epistemological and philosophical significance of scientific discovery.…”

The Centrality of Discovery in Scientific Theorizing

Scientific frame of mind consists in a certain mode of thinking and type of response to certain problems. In order to develop these qualities and attitudes one has to imbibe and internalize the dynamics of the method of science. But the vital question is, what is that pattern of thought, if at all it exists, that lies behind the discoveries of science?The answer to this question has something substantial to contribute to our knowledge of scientific method and therefore, to science training and to the philosophy of science education. The recognition of the centrality of discovery in scientific theorizing will enable us to realize what mode of thinking we must inculcate in the minds of science students and also how to enable them to see the relation between science and other domains of human creative endeavor such as art. An attempt is made in this paper to develop the philosophical position of Gary Gutting and Richard Burian on scientific discovery against the backdrop of Thomas Nickles ideas of problems and constrints. These two philosophers of science have succeeded in brining to fore the idea of problems and constraints as the pivotal concepts in characterizing scientific thinking. It is true that Karl Popper was the first philosopher to emphasize the role of problems in scientific thinking. However, he stopped at it without laying bare the texture of the scientific problematic, a task which is very ably performed by Gutting and Richard Burian who have been taken the problem of discovery as the central methodological issue. Most importantly their position on scientific discovery fundamentally distinguishes itself from the conservative views in terms of categorial reorientation, which replaces the old categories by the new ones through which the essential nature of science is described and explained. As will be elaborated in the following discussion, these changes have fundamentally altered the discourse about discovery in ways that can be of momentous significance to science education, formal or otherwise.
