abstract="The authors engage in a dialogue about the ontology, epistemology, and methodologies in research within their respective theoretical perspectives, the Roy adaptation model and the human becoming theory, insofar as these represent different paradigms in nursing science. In the discussion of ontology as the lens through which humans view their world, they articulate the primacy of ontology over methodology in shaping knowledge development.<p />",
