CHECK LIST

The three sticking points from a check list. Where do you stand on social construction? Score Your self from 1 to 5 where 5 meand you strongly stick on the constructionist side, and 1 the opposite. For example, on my reading of Kuhnm he scores 5, 5, 5. Here are my own scores, as debilitatingly ambivalent as you may have come to expect. Do your own.
