It argues against a "cookbook" or "atheoretical" approach to research, urging psychologists to develop a deeper "methodological consciousness." Drawing on the framework of the Polish idealizational theory of science (developed by the Poznan school), the author examines the philosophical assumptions underlying both experimental and non-experimental research designs. The book serves as a guide to the logic of scientific inquiry in psychology, aiming to bridge the gap between statistical practice and the philosophy of science. -- Contents: Part I.
