Incompatibility thesis
Incompatibility thesis in research methodology is an argument that the quantitative research and qualitative research paradigms cannot coexist. This thesis is supported by philosophies of post-structuralists and post-modernists (among others), who argue for the exclusive superiority of their qualitative orientation and are strongly opposed to any mixing of those two paradigms (as is advocated by the proponets of mixed-method research, also known as pragmatist paradigm or compatibility thesis).
