24
Q

Levels of Scientific Understanding

A

Description, prediction, control.

25
Q

Description

A

1st level of scientific understanding- defining observed events objectively, to help identify a hypothesis.

26
Q

Prediction

A

2nd level of scientific understanding- repeated observations show a relationship/correlation between events, hypothesis created

27
Q

Control

A

highest level of scientific understanding- showing that the intervention (IV) changed the behavior (DV), science confirms hypothesis.
