+NurseKillam I just have a question with regards the theistic moral argument, NurseKillam. Many theists tend to assert the existence of an objective morality . I've heard them say that it is a proper basic belief for people to affirm the existence of objective morality....to know that moral rights and wrongs exist. However, they insist on immunising their moral ontology from any sort of epistemological attack. They claim that how we come to know what these specific moral truths are is a separate issue and irrelevant to the ontological claim that moral rights and wrongs(objective morality) exists. But honestly, I find this problematic for this reason : What justification would somebody have for believing that a moral realm exists if they hadn't come to know specific moral truths. Surely, the coming to know moral truths has to precede the affirmation of objective morality, no??Which leads me to this conclusion....surely they have to validate their epistemological framework first, before they can justify their ontological claim?? What are your thoughts??I mean...I could flesh out the whole argument for you if you are not familiar with it and show you where I think it fails. But in some ways, you would have to agree with my query in the first paragraph. Perhaps, you will have to show me where I am going wrong!

I'm happy to help. Let me know if you need anything else explained. Also, if you happened to buy the book I'm interested in your thoughts about it.

I'm happy you liked it. I created the mind map style in Prezi. I think I can share it. I'll need to look for sharing the options. Please email me at youstudynursing@gmail.com to remind me and so I can email it to you.

+HawreKoyi1 Thank you for letting me know! I am happy it helped.

Great!

You are welcome. I don't have a video specifically about those tests yet but I have added it to my list for December or January. In the meantime +statisticslearningcentre might have one.

I do have one on normal distributions. It's number 5 in this playlist ru-vid.com/group/PLs4oKIDq23Ac8cOayzxVDVGRl0q7QTjox

The terminology isn't always used in a thesis but understanding them helps you understand why you make the decisions you do in your proposal.

I see. Thank you very much!

Awesome. I hope you like it :)

NurseKillam The video is also excellent as well. Question: what is the relationship of a paradigm with the theoretical or conceptual framework ?. Do you have any video on theoretical/conceptual frameworks? Thank you for all of your work.

I do have a video on concepts, models and theories. It is in the research playlist on my channel. Paradigms are views of reality that would guide how one sees the relationships in theoretical or conceptual models.

NurseKillam Thank you for your reply. Very useful links. Something more - in your book and in your videos, you do not mention anything about pragmatism. Why? Thank you

Because it isn't something that is covered in our BScN program. I can do something separately but my to do list has some other priorities on it right now so it would take a while.

Thanks. I believe it it readable on other devices but I'm not familiar with the file formats that they all use. The PDF is for sale on Google. I know that works on computers and most devices.

Maybe try googling it. It is also on Google play. I will look into this.

Of course! That is what I do too ;)
