[Quantitative and qualitative studies: creating spaces, making science]

The text refers about polemics and controversies emerging out of quantitative and qualitative fields of studies. In a reflexive approach, the author weighs up equivocations and visualizes some adoptions of such approaches, keeping away from conceiving the privilege of only one path. Instead, she converges to the construction of spaces in face of the uncountable possibilities of making science. For that, she keeps in mind the coherence with the proposition of a study in which the researcher is mobilized.
