社会科学理论评价标准初探
On the Evaluating Criteria of Social Science Theories
【摘要】 社会现象由于受人类主观意志的影响,因而没有自然现象的普遍性和重复性,社会科学理论也没有像自然科学理论那样确定无疑的检验标准。对社会科学理论进行评价应坚持以下标准:(1)必须用原因解释现象;(2)论证和反驳必须坚持大概率原则;(3)必须坚持逻辑的自洽性、解释的一致性和结论的预见性原则;(4)必须对概念进行严格定义;(5)必须接受反驳和批判。
【Abstract】 Because of the influence of subjective will,social phenomena do not posses the universality and repeatability of natural phenomena.Consequently,the theories of social science have no confessed evaluating criteria as natural science does.In that case,how do we evaluate the theories of social science?(1) Social phenomena must be reasoned out;(2) The principle of high probability must be upheld;(3) The principle of relevance of logic,consistency of explanation and foresight of conclusion must be maintained;(4) Concepts must be strictly defined;(5) Refutation and critique must be accepted.
【Key words】 theories of social science; theories of natural science; evaluating criteria;
