[Phys-L] Re: Piaget & Dewey: Down for the Count? - PART 1



Amended Deutsch:
Ein Gegenbespiel hat der Wert ein Tausend Bespielen.

Yes in SS, psyc, etc., etc., etc. A general statement need only be
slaughtered once. If there are exceptions, then the general statement is
False.

too many variables. the counter example may be very specific while
other parts of the theory may be still valid.

bc, who wonders if the ist should be substituted for the is.

Hi all-
In reponse to:

"[Metzenberg's (undated #2)] is an interesting article, but I'm not
sure that I see why one piece of contrary research should throw out
all of Piaget's theory. Scientific method would dictate that we
theorize, experiment, replicate and revise. Where does the
all-or-nothing stance of Metzenberg come from? I fear it comes from
ideology and belief, and not from any type of scientific approach to
the issue. Do look at the essay. The document is an opinion piece,
and not scholarly look at the issue."



"Ein gegenbespiel ist wort ein tausend bespielen is, as I
understand it, a cardinal principle of science."
