Qualitative research approach is opposed to the positivist model that propagated the unity of all sciences, arguing that the human condition can be researched through scientific approach, that is, studying a social fact is like studying a mathematical formula. Auguste Comte was the creator of this approach. About Comte, it is correct to say, EXCEPT:


In his hierarchy of sciences, mathematics occupied the first place.
In the hierarchy of sciences, sociology is reserved the last place, preceded by astronomy, physics, chemistry, and biology.
Sociology cannot exist without biology, which cannot exist without chemistry, and so on, as each science depends on the development of another.
Research is a neutral and objective activity, which justifies that the object of social sciences must be studied just like that of human sciences.
A researcher cannot be guided by judgments and prejudices, as this would contaminate the research.
