—- Soundsgood. I hope its results stays good. For, typical how things like this go is the “tenderness” is really addressing the usual attitudes of the ‘quant’ group, and so what happens is the “qual” get shut out anyways because all the quantitative people are trying to be more “tender”, And in so doing totally miss what qualitative is supposed to indicate. And then on the other side, the ’qual’ People are already indoctrinated interviewing what is the qualities of things in a quantitative manner, which is to say as if qualities can be lumped into subjective descriptions that are than quantified in the effort of making it scientific and empirical.

So I think it’s a good thing but I’m not keeping my hopes up.

Because the true issue is empiricism itself, and less how we qualify what arises inside of empirical reality. As well “cognition” itself is already a quantified unit qualified by at not being so.

About this blog

Essays in mental health philosophy—less “tips,” more why things work (or don’t). I look at the first principles under therapy, psychiatry, psychology, and everyday life, and occasionally share notes from papers and books-in-progress.

This space stands alongside—not inside—my counseling practice. If you’re seeking therapy in Colorado, there’s a link in the footer.
