SPECIFIC METHODOLOGICAL COMPETENCES
.
:
Non-scientific theories usually consist of a statement or set of statements that describe something, explain why something happens, and predict what will happen in the future
predict what will happen in the future.
Theories arise from reading the existing literature in an area of interest existing literature in an area of interest; however, some theories come from our intuitions and observations.
In terms of specificity, a research question lies in the middle between a theory, which is very broad, and a hypothesis, which is very precise between a theory, which is very broad, and a hypothesis, which is very precise.
Having a good idea is important, but just as important is knowing how your idea fits with other related ideas and research that has been done previously in the area.
The figure simplifies the research process. for those new to research, starting with theory and hypothesis generation is probably the safest way to begin a research project.
The viability of theories is not based on popularity contests. Rather, if the collective evidence from collective research supports a theory, the theory will survive collective research supports a theory, the theory will survive.
Theories are sets of organizing principles that help researchers describe and predict events predict events.
The elements of research
The research elements can be considered as basic elements for a research project, which together with our choices of these elements will determine the approach to be used in the research.
A paradigm is a worldview or framework through which knowledge is filtered; it is a
foundational perspective carrying a set of assumptions that guides the research process.
Paradigms become the lenses through which research is conceived and executed, and thus they are often difficult to see.

are often difficult to see.
It is important to recognize paradigms because the beliefs that compose them guide our thinking and actions thinking and actions.
Ontological and epistemological belief systems are joined in paradigms.
An ontology is a philosophical belief system about the nature of the social world
An epistemology is a philosophical belief system about how research proceeds and what counts as knowledge. Our epistemological position informs how we enact the role of researchers and how we understand the relationship between the researcher and research participants.
There are multiple paradigms or worldviews that guide research. Different researchers utilize different ways of grouping and naming paradigms, so note that there is some measure of inconsistency in the literature and you may come across other terms when you conduct a literature review
These six terms can guide the researcher to categorize a multiplicity of paradigms:
transformative
pragmatic
Critical
arts-based/aesthetic intersubjective.
Interpretive/constructivist
Postpositivist
UNDERSTANDING RESEARCH
Understanding research gives us plans to become researchers after college. On the other hand, it should be understood that through research we can understand the human condition and be at the service of humanity.
The classic model of the research process involves starting with a theory, generating hypotheses, testing the hypotheses, and interpreting the results testing the hypotheses and interpreting the results.
The results of one study feed back into the system and serve as a basis for future research, however, after some initial research, they may go back to explore what other related research says.

CLASSICAL RESEARCH PROCESS MODEL
The main
elements of research can be organized into three general categories:
I
2.Praxis
At the level of praxis there are four key elements of research:
methods/practices
theory, and methodology.
genre/design
Ethics.

filosófico y práctico) incluye valores:

1.Philosophical
The philosophical substructure of research consists of three elements:
ontology
3.Epistemology
