which we show our individual conduct in
social acts.

2. EPISTEMOLOGY:
(Theory of knowledge)
THEORY OF SCIENCE = PHILOSOPHY of SCIENCE
Continued.........
In practising, developing, and inventing a
theory/science, one cannot rely only upon
knowledge skills, conceptual and theoretical
mastery in his/her particular discipline, but also
needs to understand the essence of science
(ontology), the method of scientific development
(epistemology),
and
moral-ethical-religious
conducts on which he/she develops, applies,
and invents a theory/science (axiology).

Modern technology that is derived from an extensive
specialization has affected varied aspects of human
life and has intensively changed human cultural
patterns:
Lacking values:
Technology causes practical, rational, and
empirical way-of-thinking, which may produce
materialism and pragmaticism. This way-ofthinking lacks of spiritual ethics and historical
values. It results in consumptive, materialistic,
hedonistic, demoralized, and dehumanized
way-of-life.

FORMS
OF
ONTOLOGY, EPISTEMOLOGY, AND AXIOLOGY:
Idealism brings about implication of irrational
approaches. The idealism methodology is speculative
and deals with utopia imperatives.
Rationalism brings about implication of rational
approaches. Its idealism methodology is logical.
Realism-based knowledge has an implication to
empirical approaches. Its realism methodology is
inductive with hedonistic imperative norm.
Criticism-based knowledge has an implication to critical
approaches. Its methodology is synthetic with
eudaemonistical imperative norm.
Vary -isms:
Idealism : The true knowledge is an
ideal world (Plato)
Realism : The true knowledge is what is
seen and absorbed by senses (Aristotle)
Criticism : Knowledge is based on ideal
and senses (Immanuel Kant)
PRINCIPLES OF OF SCIENTIFIC
THINKING
Objective :
Focused/intense
To look at just the way it is
Rational :
Healthy, or logical, thinking without particular
feeling, emotion, belief system, and authority
Logical :
Consistent, implicative
Metodological
The use of particular scientific method:
induction, deduction, synthesis, intuition.
Systematical :
Interconnected and holistic structure of
thinking
Chronological steps towards clear goals
CORRESPONDENCE THEORY
Truth is measured by its evidence based on
principles of empirical match.
PRAGMATIC THEORY
Truth is measured by the presence of utility.
Truth is truth when it is utilized.
Mathematics/Statistics
Logics: principles of consistent thinking
PROBLEM SOLUTION
IN DEVELOPING SCIENCE AND
TECHNOLOGY
Science and technology must refer to their
ontological, epistemological, and
axiological bases.
