While considering the permanence of a theory, it is crucial to apply efficient tools for measuring its validity. Thus, one cannot claim that a theory is inconsistent due to the distant timeframes of its foundation.
As a result, it appears that while the epistemological stance is significant for any researcher, for the strong constructionism, it is of particular importance, since, for this stance, the researcher is deeply engaged in the [...]

The scope or the locus of the research is the place or the context in which the research will take place.
Though many scholars applaud the use of case studies in answering research questions, this essay established that this approach has its own disadvantages.
The locus of the study is the core network, and this refers to the implementation of the initiative of desktop virtualization.
The article starts by stating that, the relationship between teachers and students seems to be oppressive and imposing; thus, it hinders the process of conducting effective research and affects the validity of findings.
In interviews, the respondent provides the primary data for the study and the views of the researcher are not important as most of the information comes from the respondent.
For example, the construct of case studies contributes to the validity of its internal mechanisms through the use of a range of indicators for analyzing the theoretical intrigues of a research analysis.
The author demonstrates the relevance of the practice norms by suggesting the reason for the failure of the antisepsis theory in comparison to the asepsis theory that surgeons effectively implemented because it harmonized with the [...]
Furthermore, the method is too expensive since the researcher would have to stay with the researched in order to study their behaviour.
The research can publish the results of the scientific method. The researcher can publish the results of the scientific method on the data analysis and interpretation experiment.
In this light, the main focus of this method is finding fault with a proposed theory; people already have a notion about what the research to be carried out entails, and they just wait for [...]
