Scientific Research

In simplified form, the scientific process starts so. A scientist

observes certain phenomena. He records and measures what he

observes. Then he suggests an explanation a hypothesis.

The hypothesis is subjected to tests. The scientist test the

hypothesis by more precise measurement. It is a special kind of

observation under controlled conditions – an experiment.

Upon being tested, a hypothesis may have to be abandoned or

modified, or it may be found to stand as formulated. If verified, a

hypothesis is known as a theory, though in practice the two terms are

used almost interchangeably. Theories which have been long

accepted, are broad in their application, well-established theories are

referred to as principles or laws.

Appreciation of the work the scientists are doing may also

develop and scientists can learn to apply scientific principles in

every day affairs.

We can become aware of what kinds of evidence are

necessary for arriving at concussion and should learn to be skeptical

of ideas even though they have been held for a long period of time.
