摘要:A revision of the paradigmatic structure attributed to Psychology is presented, arguing the insufficiency of the dominant conception proposed by Lincoln & Guba (1985). As that conception limits the paradigmatic dimensions to three domains: ontology, epistemology and, methodology; two other are added: ethics and politics. These new dimensions are defined, and discussed from a critical perspective. An ontological proposal based on a conception of the Being and the relation is analysed and illustrated with experiences coming from praxis (action and research producing theory).
