|Title=Epistemic Elements - Questions and Theories
|Theory Type=Descriptive
|Formulation Text=The two basic classes of elements that can undergo scientific change are questions and theories, where each theory is an attempt to answer a certain question, and method is a subtype of normative theory.
|Formulation File=Ontology of Epistemic Elements (Barseghyan-2018).png
|Topic=Epistemic Elements
|Authors List=Hakob Barseghyan,
|Formulated Year=2018
|Description=In this ontology of epistemic elements, [[Theory|theories]] are conceived of as attempts to answer certain [[Question|questions]]. Theories can be of three types – [[Descriptive Theory|descriptive]], [[Normative Theory|normative]], or [[Definition|definitions]]. [[Method]] is understood as a subtype of normative theory. The ontology also posits that both questions and theories of all types – including methods – can be ''accepted''. Finally, the ontology suggests that normative theories of all types can be [[Norm Employment|''employed'']].
