A post-positivist research approach advocates methodological pluralism. It is based on the assumption that the method to be applied in a particular study should be selected based on the research question being addressed. The research described here takes a post-positivist approach, applying interpretive research in two ways: in an exploratory study of end-user computing conducted prior to a positivist study and in a study of end-user searching behaviors conducted concurrently with a positivist study.
