Abstract

Philosophy of science plays a critical role as the epistemological foundation in shaping research methodologies and guiding scientific inquiries. Although previous literature emphasizes the theoretical connection between philosophy and science, studies synthesizing how specific philosophical paradigms directly dictate operational research designs remain limited. This study aims to analyze the role of philosophy of science in developing scientific methods through a critical synthesis of ontological, epistemological, and axiological pillars across major research paradigms. Utilizing a descriptive-analytical library research approach, relevant literature on philosophy, methodology, and scientific inquiry was systematically examined. The findings demonstrate that philosophical paradigms directly govern research operations: (1) positivism enforces quantitative, experimental designs aimed at empirical verification and causal relationships; (2) constructivism drives qualitative, naturalistic approaches focused on contextual meaning and dialectical interpretation; and (3) pragmatism serves as the theoretical bridge for mixed-methods research, prioritizing practical problem-solving over methodological purity. Furthermore, the study underscores that integrating axiological reflection is vital for navigating contemporary methodological challenges, including algorithmic bias and data ethics. In conclusion, philosophy of science provides both the logical structure for operational methodology and the ethical framework necessary for maintaining scientific integrity

Abstract

In an era characterized by rapid technological innovation, artificial intelligence expansion, and ecological crises, the development of science often prioritizes technical progress over moral considerations. This study critically examines the axiology of science as an essential philosophical framework to ensure scientific advancements remain aligned with human dignity and planetary sustainability. Utilizing a qualitative library research design with a philosophical-hermeneutic approach, this paper synthesizes contemporary and classical literature on the value dimensions of science. The analysis addresses three core issues: the structural alignment between axiology and scientific inquiry, the systemic factors leading to the marginalization of axiological reflection, and a critical evaluation of science's benefits alongside its potential risks. The findings demonstrate that axiology serves not merely as a moral supervisor, but as a active compass that bridges theoretical knowledge with human welfare, limits destructive applications, and promotes inclusive, data-driven public policy. However, the institutional dominance of positivism, hyper-specialization, and commercial pressures frequently sideline axiological considerations in modern research environments. The study concludes that embedding axiological evaluation into scientific education, policy design, and research governance is imperative for transforming scientific progress into sustainable, ethically grounded benefits for humanity.
