Causalidade, Mecanismos, Inferência, Desenho de pesquisaResumo
Esse artigo defende que os desenhos de empíricos de pesquisa em Ciência Política devem ser formatados com o objetivo de produzir inferências causais falsificáveis. Inferir no sentido de utilizar informações disponíveis para apresentar conclusões a respeito de informações indisponíveis. Causais de modo que a ocorrência de altere a probabilidade de ocorrência de. E falsificáveis no sentido de que a inferência pode ser demonstrada falsa por um desenho de pesquisa concorrente. Além disso, as explicações devem identificar o mecanismo causal que conecta variável dependente e variável independente.Downloads
