|Theory Type=Descriptive
|Topic=Epistemic Elements|Authors List=Hakob Barseghyan|Formulated Year=2015|Description=According to Barseghyan's original ontology, "at any moment of time, there are certain theories and certain methods employed in theory assessment".[[CiteRef::Barseghyan (2015)|p.5]] ThusIn that ontology, [[Theory|theories]] and [[Method|methods]] are the two types of elements that undergo scientific change; as such, they constitute the ontology of scientific change. Importantly, in this ontology, the class of theories only includes ''descriptive'' propositions; ''normative'' propositions (such as those of ethics or methodology) are left out of the ontology.
