Abstract
The applicability and influence of epistemology in the research processes as well as in the concept of science itself can be evidenced in different points; the research process will never be completely objective and impersonal, but the researcher brings with him a series of epistemological beliefs that help to decide how to approach a phenomenon to be investigated. The different epistemological models classify and discriminate what in the past, present and future was known, is known and will be known as science, thus suggesting that these same epistemological models, together with their ways of constructing and validating scientific knowledge, will never be static; on the contrary, they are constantly changing.
In this way, the role of epistemology is highlighted in order for researchers to be more reflective and to dare to implement innovative research methodologies, leaving aside possible methodological dogmatism; the so-called "lazy thinking" or "scientism", particularly in the field of education and the processes of teaching and scientific production in Latin America.
Key words: Epistemological models, scientific research, reflexivity
