The scientific community communicates its finding to the rest of the world by publishing its work in scientific journals. This enables others to replicate and repeat other scientists’ experiments to accept or reject the hypothesis and conclusions of others. However, individual scientists do not submit their work to the scientific community before making sure they are right. How best can they ensure that their results are valid?

• Scientists hire editors to review their lab reports to make sure that their explanations are clear and concise and to change anything that doesn’t sound good.

• Scientists partner with mathematicians to check over all their data and charts and graphs to ensure that there is enough data, but if not, they can add to the data.

• Scientists repeat their experiments just a few times to show that they can get the same results more than once and to catch any mistakes in the procedure.

• The scientists repeat their experiments over and over many times to ensure that they have taken everything into consideration to communicate quality results.
