Popis: Triangulation as a tool of location has been known from Antiquity. Notwithstanding in the social sciences, as a research method, it was first used in the middle of the twentieth century. From that time its fate was different. However, the breakthrough was the beginning of the twentieth first century, in which the extended this type of cognition, thanks to N.K. Denzin, has been widely recognized as a research tool. Moreover, this cognitive model has adopted a form of analysis that does not fully explain the cause and effect of certain facts that take place and have relationships with a specific object. Therefore the solution is synthesis as a fuller way of thinking. Based on metaphysical abstraction, it allows reducing not only the errors of quantitative and qualitative method, but also cognitive deficiencies introduced by the analysis, which does not fully use triangulation as a cognitively rich research method.
