Abstract: Abstract The application of computer-based simulation procedures has led to the formation of a compact body of methodological knowledge. But what about the methods and the practices of research in the social and human sciences addressing simulation-based research? Is there one authentic type of evaluative research on simulation research? Should it exist? And if so: what epistemic forms, what overarching methodological postulates are fruitful? The Paper looks into these questions.
