ordenada, desde el identificar una problemática hasta obtener resultados y conclusiones determinantes de la investigación; de método hipotético deductivo, que connota desde una visión general en la investigación para obtener puntos específicos en la misma; el tipo de estudio acorde fue Sustantivo, en que Sánchez y Reyes (2015) hicieron referencia que se orienta a describir, explicar, predecir o retrodecir la realidad, con lo cual se va en búsqueda de principios y leyes generales que permita organizar una teoría científica.

to state something with hindsight
Es una expresión muy común en inglés. En Castellano suelen decir "con la mirada hacía atrás". Es mas fácil explicar el pasado "with hindsight" aunque no tengas evidencia. Lo que estás sosteniendo se ve justificado por lo que pasó...
Example sentence:
With hindsight it is easy to see why Napoleon failed in his invasion of Russia.
Something went wrong...
