What is the fifth key step in the scientific method?

• Replicate for validation

• Design an experiment

• Report findings

• Ask a question

Why are disagreements considered normal in science?

• Scientists never agree on anything.

• Scientists often debate hypotheses, results, and interpretations.

• Disagreements are avoided at all costs.

• Disagreements are a sign of failure.

How does trust in scientific findings grow?

• When results are never repeated.

• When results are repeated by different scientists.

• When only one scientist conducts the experiment.

• When results are kept secret.

What does variability in results indicate?

• All scientists agree.

• Different interpretations are possible.

• Experiments are always flawed.

• Results are always the same.

What do larger samples provide in a study?

• Less accurate data

• More accurate data

• No data

• Confusing data

Key Factors in Evaluating Studies

• Cause-and-Effect Relationship

• Sample Size

• Appropriate Group Selection

• all of the above
