Abstract

Upshot: We frame our response to the nine OPCs by illustrating how issues related to the observer are salient in research. This leads us to bring forward distinctions about what research and researchers are, for us, all about. We frame research and the researcher’s role in terms of endeavors aiming to offer ways at looking at a phenomenon, and not of providing undeniable, hard facts.
