  1. chapter12 Historical Research in Physical Activity

  2. Chapter Outline • Research paradigms • Lines of inquiry and topics • Designing the research • Working with the evidence • Some final thoughts

  3. The Historian Begins • Historical research does not have the traditional parts of a quantitative study. • Even though the structure is more like storytelling, it is systematic. • Defining research paradigms • What is historical evidence; what is data? • How does social change proceed? Is it cumulative and linear or in spurts? • Exploring lines of inquiry and topics • Investigating secondary sources • Developing good questions

  4. Designing the Research • Descriptive history: What happened • A map of what happened • Landmarks or markers on the map • Analytical history: How and why it happened • How did this come to be? • Why did this come to be?

  5. Working With Evidence • Questions asked become more specific as one works with the evidence. • Locating primary sources: Go where the sources are. • Criticizing the sources • External criticism: Is this authentic? • Internal criticism: Is it credible? • Reading the evidence: What is this evidence of? • Considering the context
