testing of hypothesis

In contrast, controlled laboratory studies emphasize the testing of hypotheses.

Quantitative psychological research lends itself to the statistical testing of hypotheses.

Further, the quantitative form in which the results of standardised interviews can be cast makes it especially important for the testing of hypotheses.

Only by the rigorous testing of hypotheses could the investigator - the journalist - reach reliable, bias-free conclusions.

Quantitative approaches, e.g., include the formulation and testing of hypotheses by sophisticated statistical analyses.

Cross-subsystem research (e.g., formulation and testing of hypotheses in two or more subsystems at a time).

Empirical science uses the scientific method to create a posteriori knowledge based on observation and repeated testing of hypotheses and theories.

The scientific method can be regarded as containing an element of trial and error in its formulation and testing of hypotheses.

Concepts in Hempel's D-N model play a key role in the development and testing of hypotheses.

Essential to organization development and effectiveness is the scientific method - inquiry, a rigorous search for causes, experimental testing of hypotheses, and review of results.

Whereas one emphasizes exploration (exploring a parameter space), the other emphasizes the testing of hypotheses (about the origins of robustness).

The scientific method consists of the collection of data through observation and experimentation, and the formulation and testing of hypotheses.

The origin of the word 'science' involves the empiric observation of measurable quantities and the testing of hypotheses to falsify or support them.

All strategies for sound testing of hypotheses suggested by the data involve including a wider range of tests in an attempt to validate or refute the new hypothesis.

SCIENCE: The process of developing a systematized knowledge of the world through the variation and testing of hypotheses.

This allows testing of hypotheses of inheritance of a major dominant, additive, or recessive gene and multifactorial genetic or environmental inheritance.

Generalized p-Values in Significance Testing of Hypotheses in the Presence of Nuisance Parameters.

A generalization of Student's t statistic, called Hotelling's T-square statistic, allows for the testing of hypotheses on multiple (often correlated) measures within the same sample.

Both scientific laws and scientific theories are produced from the scientific method through the formation and testing of hypotheses, and can predict the behavior of the natural world.

Tsui, K. and Weerahandi, S. (1989): "Generalized p-values in significance testing of hypotheses in the presence of nuisance parameters".

Members of supposedly 'primitive' societies clearly engage in scientific practices, such as empirical testing of hypotheses, when they plant seeds, the successful growth of which is vital for their survival.

Or to put it another way: on the representational theory of mind, all learning is the testing of hypotheses which are already represented in the mind in some form (for instance as sentences).

For Behaviouralists, the path to knowledge was via the collection of observable data; regularities within the data were to lead to the framing and testing of hypotheses, from which theories would be constructed.

The development and testing of hypotheses on extraterrestrial life is known as exobiology or astrobiology; the term astrobiology, however, includes the study of life on Earth viewed in its astronomical context.

The scientific method involves the proposal and testing of hypotheses, by deriving predictions from the hypotheses about the results of future experiments, then performing those experiments to see whether the predictions are valid.
