Last week we discussed the controversial âNew Family Structures Studyâ by sociologist Mark Regnerus, and we saw how fundamental differences in values and assumptions about human nature can result in intractable disagreements about how to interpret the facts of human society. In this 2-3 page Journal reflection, analyze the values that influence research bias, as illustrated by the Regnerus case. Explain the differing assumptions that lead Mark Regnerus and his critics to opposing conclusions about the same data, and evaluate the possibility of value-neutral research about such controversial topics.
