|Description=This formulation introduces normative theories (e.g. those of ethics or methodology) into the ontology of scientific change. Thus, all the laws and theorems that concern ''theories'' apply not only to descriptive theories but also to normative theories.

|History=In Barseghyan's [[Epistemic Elements - Theories and Methods (Barseghyan-2015)|original ontologyof epistemic elements]], only ''descriptive'' theories and employed methods were considered part of the process of scientific change. ''Normative'' theories were excluded from the ontology for their introduction appeared to be resulting in [[The Paradox of Normative Propositions|a destructive paradox]]. With the [[Resolution to the Paradox of Normative Propositions (Sebastien-2016)|solution]] of the paradox by Sebastien, it became possible to introduce normative propositions as elements of the ontology of scientific change.
