This will allow the person performing the tests to know if they need to do more research and experimenting, or if they have the right answer to the questions they are answering. The hypothesis in this method have the potential to make a long standing theory that many people can use and believe in for mnay years to come. (Barrow, 1991)(Kuhn, 1952) The experiment that was conducted on the scientific methods website proved that my prediction that the flower grew towards the window due to the fact

problem. The scientific method consists of a series of steps used by scientists to conduct experiments. The word observation has two meanings in scientific method, first there the scientists observation of the world as it leads to the hypothetical theory (a theory that lacks merit) This is the first step of scientific method and can be presented in two ways either as a natural observation or a staged one, Second in the collection of data in a experiment using the scientific method there are two observations

Personal Construct People develop internal models of reality, called constructs in order to understand and explain the world around them in the same way that scientists develop theories. For example, just like scientists, they develop these constructs based on observation and experimentation. Constructs thus start as unstable conjecture, changing and stabilizing as more experience and proof is gained. Constructs are often defined by words, but can also be non-verbal and hard to explain, such as

proper basis of knowledge, it is experiment and rational analysis of nature, just as religion considers that there is only one source of knowledge, God (or other Absolute). Therefore there is only one methodology of searching for science (scientific theories and experiments) and only one way of cognition for religion (revelation and spiritual dialogue with God). By contrast, philosophy agrees that there are many ways of cognition, just as there are many forms of knowledge and many beginnings of that

Week One Assignment Testing a Theory PSY/211 April 8, 2011 In my profession, theories are constantly brainstormed and are key ingredients of Quality and Efficiency design. Along with the chosen theory must come a vast majority of collection of data in order to measure, analyze, conduct experiments, and prove whether your theory was correct or not and why? One example I choose to explain when I tested a theory was 4 years ago on assignment with Panasonic Corporation. Their manufacturing

Morgan, the hypothesis’ main promoter. The Aquatic Ape Hypothesis basically states that there are some holes in our current understanding of human evolution (specifically, some physical traits that humans have don’t make sense according to current theory), these traits are similar to those found in marine mammals, therefore humans had a recent aquatic ancestor (known as the “aquatic ape”). It’s certainly simple, but is it correct? Some of these aquatic-linked human physical traits include: *
