When social scientist use interpretivism?

How do they derive scientific knowledge?








I am of course presuming that social science is not fundamentally different from natural science, and they share similar goals of explaining and predicting the world.





And if you tell me that social scientist do not intend to create predictions, my next question is this.


where do you draw the line between history and social science?

When social scientist use interpretivism?
At the present time, the only method that scientists can use to attempt to determine exactly what a person is feeling at any given time is to ask him directly.





Right now, interpretive analysis is all that is available to scientists in this particular area of scientific inquiry.
