Causality In Crisis?: Statistical Methods & Search for Causal Knowledge in Social Sciences
Vaughn R. McKim & Stephen P. Turner (eds.)
Notre Dame Press (1997)
Abstract
These essays critically reassess the widely accepted view that statistical methods of analysis can, and do, yield causal understanding of social phenomena. They emphasize the historical, philosophical and conceptual perspectives that underlie and inform current methodological controversies.Author's Profile
