Rating scales are increasingly used as primary or secondary outcome measures in clinical studies in neurology.1 They are therefore becoming the key dependent variables upon which decisions are made that influence patient care and guide future research. The adequacy of these decisions depends directly on the scientific quality of the rating scales, which is reflected by the increased application of rating scale science

“…We do not need to give up our subjectivity trying to be governed by an externally given objective truth, but we need to embrace our subjectivity and pursue it, in order to create a universal truth that emerges from the synergistic assembly of all which is partial and subjective. We could even say that this is our interpretation of Popper's [23] conceptualization of inter-subjectivity, which he offers as a replacement for the notion of objectivity. This is hard enough to do in the hard sciences, but in the human-social studies it is many times harder.…”

Based on decades of combined experience in teaching, observing and working with decision makers, we realized that the praxis of decision making as well as our own approach has always been transdisciplinary. Therefore in this paper we offer a transdisciplinary model of decision making at three levels of reality, namely model, method and tool. We conduct our inquiry in the realm of human-social studies, and argue that in this realm we need to transcend the traditional hard sciences and include a soft approach. Along the way we examine the concept of transdisciplinarity within human-social studies, and introduce the concept of meta-knowledge. Examining the research and teaching of decision making on this basis, we suggest that 'coffeehouse philosophers' should teach about decision making, bringing in practicing decision makers whom they interview, while students will need to go through a process of 'bootstrap learning' figuring out their decision problems.

“…Hidden or silent nature of the fundamental beliefs commonly has devastating influence on beliefs and action (Popper, 2002). Science also presupposes certain beliefs, for example classical mechanics presumes a belief in the existence of the principles of causality, determinism, uniformity, symmetry, and reductionism.…”

Neslaganje oko uvođenja kurikuluma spolnog odgoja u Hrvatskoj predstavlja ozbiljan problem obrazovne politike. Rad kombinira dvije perspektive u definiciji teorijski i praktički relevantnog pitanja uvođenja spolnog odgoja. Iz ‘ptičje perspektive’ promatra argumentaciju aktera koji se ne slažu ‘što treba činiti’ (nisu u ‘praktičnoj slozi’). Nakon toga iz ‘žablje perspektive’ promatra kako praktični, vrijednosni sud, ovisi o prešutnim teorijskim (antropološkim pretpostavkama i naravi znanja) i praktičnim premisama (izvedenima iz normativnih izvora). Ovaj rad definira okvir otvorenog pitanja suvremene filozofije o logici postupka ravnopravnog i racionalnog razrješenja razlike stavova tvrdeći da komunikacijska etika argumentacije u slučaju praktičnog neslaganja treba prenijeti predmet rasprave na teorijske premise: pravo preispitivanja pretpostavke suprotne strane – njezine istinitosti, iskrenosti i poželjnosti. Proučavajući razlike u stavovima u članku se analiziraju zadane prešutne premise strane koja uvodi obavezni kurikulum. Pretpostavka razrješenja problema uvođenja spolnog odgoja je u unaprjeđenju međusobnog razumijevanja teorijskih premisa, a ne u dokazu svog stava i ostvarenju nauma. Razumijevanje teorijskih premisa omogućava uspostavu točke razumijevanja kao temelja i polazišta rasprave. Točka razumijevanja nije postignuta pa iako postojeća predložena rješenja ukazuju na načelnu mogućnost uvođenja obaveznog kurikuluma spolnog odgoja u višekulturnoj demokraciji, to nije ostvareno u ovom slučaju.
