(0)1. Paradigm
A perspective or point of view affecting what is recognized, known, valued, and done. For example, those who adhere to the positivist paradigm consider to be "true" only that which they can observe to be in one-to-one corresponsence with an objective reality, while those who adhere to the interpretivist paradigm consider reality to be subjectively constructed and apprehended.
