Validating a theory requires replicable measurements from independent groups with different equipment and methods of analysis. Convergence of evidence is critical to the acceptance of a scientific idea. Priyamvada Natarajan

Acceptance Thinking Analysis Validating Evidence Independent Critical Data Hypotheses Idea Involves Scientific Equipment Testing Methods Different Convergence Against Requires Theories Theory Measurements Reasoning Groups
