The Need for Psychological Science Hindsight bias and judgmental overconfidence show that we cannot rely on intuition and common sense. Hindsight Bias: The thought that once a person finds out the outcome, that the person knew the outcome all along and could have predicted it. Overconfidence: Thinking is limited not only because of our after-the-fact common sense but by over confidence When you are 100% sure about something, self prediction may change up to 15% of the time When someone predicts wrong, they seem to use the ? I was close? excuse Skepticism and humility must be added to help us tell the difference between life and reality The Scientific Attitude You need to be Skeptical but not cynical Need to be able to have humility and be able to reject ones owns ideas

Fenn, Koichi Tanaka, Kurt W?thrich ( nglish Swedish Popular Information Information for tK H PuEliF 9 October 2002 The Nobel Prize in Chemistry for 2002 is being shared between scientists in two important fields: mass spectrometry (MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The Laureates, John B. Fenn and Koichi Tanaka (for MS) and Kurt W?thrich (for NMR), have contributed in different ways to the further development of these methods to embrace biological macromolecules. This has meant a revolutionary breakthrough, making

Statistical hypothesis testing
Research

Research the meaning of null hypothesis. Describe how and why it is used in experimental design. Properly cite your reference. In statistical inference of observed data of a scientific experiment, the null hypothesis refers to a general or default position: that there is no relationship between two measured phenomena,[1] or that a potential medical treatment has no effect.[2] Rejecting or disproving the null hypothesis ? and thus concluding that there are grounds for believing that there is a relationship between two phenomena or that a potential treatment has a measurable effect ? is a central task in the modern practice of science, and gives a precise sense in which a claim is capable of being proven false.

Research Methods In today?s world there are a vast number of ways to do research. Some are good and some are bad. The research method you use also depends on what kind of outcome you?re looking for. The two main concepts I believe that I found most useful was the Foundations section under Knowledge Base and the Computer Simulations section.

Chapter Two What is science? Science: ? is a methodical, logical process for producing knowledge about natural phenomena ? a cumulative body of knowledge ----- Table 2.1 : Basic Principles of Science (7) Science depends on skepticism and accuracy ? Ideally scientists are skeptical and un biased. ? Scientist strive for ? Accuracy- correctness of measurement ? Reproducibility- Repeatability of result : Repeating studies or tests is called replication Deductive and inductive reasoning ? Deductive reasoning- logical reasoning from general to specific ? Inductive reasoning- reasoning from many observations to produce a general rule ? It is also important to recognize the role of insight, creativity, aesthetics, and luck in research

Pre-AP Chemistry Modern Chemistry (2006) Chapter 2 Notes-Measurements and Calculations 2.1 The Scientific Method The process that researchers use to carry out their investigations is often called the scientific method. The scientific method is a logical approach to solving problems by observing and collecting data, formulating hypotheses, testing hypotheses, and formulating theories that are supported by data. 2.2 Units of Measurement Units of Measurement Measurements are quantitative information. They represent quantities. A quantity is something that has magnitude, size, or amount. A quantity is not the same as a measurement. For example, the quantity represented by a teaspoon is volume. The teaspoon is a unit of measurement, while the volume is a quantity.
