Questions and Responses 1) Describe Platt’s methods of strong inference. How does this method guide research programmes in terms of accuracy of conclusions, efficiency of resources and utility of planning for future research? Platt’s methods of strong inference are post-positivism. He asserts that counter productivity can occur when a single theory is adhered to and attachment occurs. The single theory method lacks efficiency and can be subject to confirmation bias. Strong inference is the method
