Abstract:

Currently, one of the methodological debates in linguistics focuses on the
question of what kinds of data are allowed in different linguistic theories
and what subtypes of data can work as evidence for or against particular
hypotheses. The first part of the volume puts forward a methodological
framework called the ‘p-model’ that is expected to account for the
data/evidence problem in linguistics. The aim of the case studies in the
second part is to show how this framework can be applied to the everyday
research practice of the working linguist, and how it can increase the
effectiveness of linguistic theorising. Accordingly, the case studies
exemplify that the p-model can come to grips with diverse object-scientific
quandaries in syntax, semantics and pragmatics. The third part includes case
studies that illustrate how it copes with metascientific issues such as
inconsistency in linguistic theories and the relationship between thought
experiments and real experiments.
