Medicine, as a science that studies a healthy and sick human organism, together with the rapidly advancing development of our knowledge in the field of natural sciences, begins to gradually expand the circle of its observations and studies. Along with this, the connection between medicine and such important branches of knowledge as criminal anthropology, sociology and psychology is becoming closer and closer and closer; Many provisions of these sciences are still based on data borrowed from the field of medical observation or obtained with the help of natural scientific methods of research.

Die Analyse ästhetischer Phänomene mit naturwissenschaftlichen Methoden verschleiert in ihrem Resultat zuweilen die Problematik einer experimentellen Ästhetik. In der Studie zu Bill Violas Videoinstallation The Greeting konkretisiert sich exemplarisch die Diskrepanz von theoretischem Anspruch und experimenteller Wirklichkeit. Das hochgesteckte Ziel einer Aufschlüsselung der (emotional-ästhetischen) Rezeption von The Greeting folgt den Standards experimenteller/empirischer Forschung. Die entsprechende Datenlage aber bietet nicht nur bestätigende Korrelationen, sie überrascht und zugleich ernüchtert auch mit interpretativen Sackgassen und nötigt zur Revision der These. Mit geklärtem Rückblick auf das abgeschlossene Experiment und gezieltem Seitenblick auf verwandte Untersuchungen bestätigt sich der Verdacht, dass die Erprobung ästhetischer Erfahrung mit den Mitteln der Naturwissenschaft zwar aufschlussreich, aber ebenso limitiert ist.<br><br>The analysis of aesthetic phenomena using scientific methods sometimes conceals the difficulties of experimental aesthetics. In the study with Bill Viola’s videoinstallation The Greeting, the discrepancy of theoretical claim and experimental reality takes shape exemplarily. The ambitious aim of dissecting the (emotional-aesthetic) perception of The Greeting follows the standards of experimental/empirical research. The data, however, offers not only confirming correlations, but also unexpected findings and interpretive impasses that force a revision of the thesis. With a retrospective view on the completed experiment, the suspicion is confirmed that proving aesthetic experience with the means of the natural sciences is informative, but also limited.

At the rise of the twentieth century, armed with the success of natural sciences, the school of naturalism argued that the appropriate methodology for all disciplines, including social sciences, is that of natural science. The paper argued that social sciences cannot be naturalised and has its own appropriate methodology. The paper examined the arguments for naturalism and non-naturalism of the method of philosophy of social sciences. The paper employed both primary and secondary sources of data. Data collected were subjected to critical analysis and philosophical argumentation. The results showed that the nature of social sciences is such that it cannot be subjected to only scientific methods. The paper concludes that there is a need for a methodology that understands the subject matter of social sciences to address issues in social sciences. The paper addressed some key issues in philosophy of social sciences. Keywords: Methodology, Natural sciences, Naturalism, Social sciences.
