SCEINTIFIC METHOD:
1. QUESTION AND THEORY = Method of observing and predictable outcomes
2. HYPOTHESIS, TESTABLE PREDICTION
3. TEST WITH REPLICABLE EXPERIMENT (CASE STUDIES, NATURALISTIC OBSERVATION, BOTH ARE GREAT AT
DESCRIBING BUT NOT EXPLAINING BEHAVIORS. SURVEYS AND INTERVIEWS ALSO USED, BUT BIAS CAN BE A
FACTOR IN HOW QUESTIONS ASKED , SAMPLING BIAS, ALSO THE AUDIENCE YOU ASK THE QUESTION MAY BE
BIASED. RANDOM SAMPLE, = MORE LIKELY TO GET A MORE TRUE RESULT, AS IT IS NOT BIASED; (REMEMBER
CORELATION IS NOT CAUSATION; EXPERIMENTING, CONTROL AND NON-CONTROL GROUPS, PLACEBOS, DOUBLE-
BLIND PROCEDURE).
4. CONCLUSION
