At the beginning of the cognitive procedure, the choice of the research perspective is crucial. Whereas, in numerous pedagogy-field publications, authors almost automatically move from the problem to the methods and techniques of its solution. They do not inform about the chosen research perspective and present only a sketch of the adopted path of the research procedure. The paper presents selected theoretical foundations of scientific research on education. It discusses two inference strategies: inductive and hypothetico-deductive.
