This paper advocates a philosophical and methodological approach to the medical conversation between doctor and patient. It engages the issue of subjectivity in medicine, focusing on the dialogue between patient and physician regarding health choices and subjective experience. A performatory approach to training physicians to communicate with their patients (rather than a cognitive approach to doctor-patient communication) is described.

Apples and oranges: Conceptual review as task analysis method.
Eur J Neurosci
January 2025
Department of Philosophy, Radboud University, Nijmegen, The Netherlands.
Conceptual review is a method to address issues of task comparability and task validity in cognitive neuroscience. Meta-analyses within cognitive neuroscience (CNS) as well as integration of neuroscientific findings with findings from adjacent disciplines both involve gathering studies that have purportedly investigated the same mental concept. After all, it is no use comparing apples and oranges.

Int J Nurs Knowl

Department of Nursing, Federal University of Ceará, Fortaleza, Brazil.
Purpose: This purpose of this article was to use the method of conceptual history to analyze the evolution of the concept of "validity" in nursing diagnoses and to identify key transformations, theoretical influences, and implications for contemporary clinical judgment and decision-making.
Methods: Five stages derivate from the approach proposed by Reinhart Koselleck, including: identify the concept and its relevance, historical contextualization, contextual use, semantic changes over time, and synthesis and interpretation.
Findings: The concept of "validity" in nursing diagnoses is essential for accurate diagnostics, interdisciplinary communication, and evidence-based decision-making, though its interpretation varies due to differing philosophical perspectives and methodological challenges.
Replication Crisis in Psychology, Second-Order Cybernetics, and Transactional Causality: from Experimental Psychology to Applied Psychological Practice.
Integr Psychol Behav Sci
January 2025
Department of Psychology, Panteion University, Athens, Greece.
This article aims to reconceptualize the replication crisis as not merely a problem of flawed methods, lack of scientific rigor, or questionable researcher conduct, but as a fundamentally epistemological and philosophical issue. While improved methodologies and scientific practices are necessary, they must be considered through the lens of the underlying epistemologies. Toward this end, a new paradigm for psychological research and practice, grounded in second-order cybernetics and transactional causality, is proposed as instrumental.

Introduction: Health professions education research has evolved as a discipline, yet chronological trends in topics and methodologies together have not been comprehensively explored previously. This study aimed to identify the trends in research topics and methodologies used in primary empirical studies published in reputable health professions education research journals at the turn of three decades (2000, 2010, and 2020).
Methods: Underpinned by relativism and subjectivism, this review of trends included primary empirical studies published in five quartile 1 health professions education research journals, defined by Clarivate (Academic Medicine, Advances in Health Sciences Education, Medical Education, Medical Teacher, and Nurse Education Today) from three sample years at the start of three decades (2000, 2010, and 2020).

Werklund School of Education, University of Calgary, Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
The multifaceted nature of research integrity (RI) calls for the adoption of innovative methodologies to achieve a more thorough understanding. Mixed methods research (MMR) provides a valuable framework by combining diverse data sources, enabling a more nuanced exploration of complex research questions. This paper reviews seven RI studies employing MMR to identify methodological shortcomings.
