Confirmation Bias and The Scientific Method II: Applying the Scientific Method
Manage episode 420549265 series 3391756
For many researchers, modern science has become about getting results rather than asking questions. Results mean publications, and publications mean more funding.
However, results are not the objective of the scientific method, which involves proposing an answer to a question, designing experiments to determine whether the proposed answer is true or false, and objectively interpreting the results.
This episode of Listen In explores the definition of the scientific method and how to apply it to your research.
Get a handle on the scientific method with a clear definition, and learn how to apply it to your research using real-life examples of the scientific method in action.
You will come away from this tutorial with increased confidence in the rigor of your research and the fundamental knowledge to design scientifically sound experiments.
