Paradigma pragmático, Pesquisa em Sistemas de Informação, Métodos mistos, Rigor e relevância

Resumo

O pragmatismo pode ser definido como uma doutrina que considera as coisas a partir de um ponto de vista prático. O pragmatismo prega que a ação e a relevância prática devem ser os pontos chave da pesquisa científica. O paradigma pragmático tem se apresentado como alternativa paradigmática do positivismo e do interpretativismo, possibilitando a solução de problemas inerentes dos paradigmas dominantes, positivismo e interpretativismo. O presente artigo apresenta, a partir de um levantamento bibliográfico, o paradigma pragmático, realizando uma comparação com outros paradigmas, assim como a utilização de métodos quantitativos, qualitativos e mistos, a partir de uma perspectiva de relevância prática com rigor metodológico.
