The core ontological positions in psychology are Realism, Relativism/Constructivism, and Biological/Physicalist.
Psychology uses both Empiricism and Rationalism. It uses Empiricism to gather data and Rationalism to turn data into theories.
Since Computer Science doesn’t study one, naturally occurring reality, the discipline is spread across different ontological positions: Dualism/Pluralism, Physicalism/Materialism, Rationalism/Platonism, and Anti-Realism/Constructivism.
Computer Science uses both Empiricism and Rationalism. It uses Rationalism for its mathematical logic and building systems and Empiricism for testing those systems.
Neuroanatomy & Neurophysiology
The core ontological positions are Physicalist Monism, Reductionism, and Emergentism.
Neuroanatomy and neurophysiology primarily use Empiricism, but researchers also rely on Rationalism to develop their theories and interpret their data.
The ontological positions of electrical engineering are realist, materialist, and pragmatic.
Electrical engineering uses both Empiricism and Rationalism.
