What are the remaining stages?*
(1) |
|
Hypothesis – introduction by: |
(a) anecdotal evidence |
|
|
|
(b) intuition re structure |
(2) |
|
Decide which parts can and which cannot be verified scientifically, eg by prediction and testing of predictions using statistical methods: |
|
|
(a) |
Metaphysical – cannot be tested, only judged (broadly, the further hemisphere)** |
|
|
(b) |
Actual – can be tested (the nearer hemisphere)** |
|
(3) |
|
Devise tests of selected significant parts of C[ircles] A[nalysis] and S[ynthesis], eg predicting statistical results and future historical events*** |
|
(4) |
|
Perform tests, wait for results |
|
(5) |
|
Assess results, draw conclusion(s). |

****I’m not sure how the attempt to fit non-C[ircles] A[nalysis] and S[ynthesis] patterns, as an invalidity test, fits in here <900914>
