Scientific status
Issues and debates
Worth asking: sciences attract great respect from the public and funding
from companies and governments

Objective: detached from what they are studying and don’t let their feelings
or emotions affect their conclusions

Replicable: repeat research and check results

Laws: make successful predictions about what will happen in real-life
situations

Reliable

well-designed with standardised procedures that can be replicated
accurately

Not: make on-the-spot decisions, use their imagination or bring personal bias

Valid

behaviour being studied is natural and realistic and not influenced by outside
factors

Not: lots of other possible explanations for the results that are just as
plausible as the one being offered
