There are currently three standards for the admissibility of scientific expert testimony in the US; the Fry Standard, the Federal Rules of Evidence, and the Duabert Starndard (1). The Fry standard is the oldest being established in the case of Fry v. United States, 1923. It sets the standard as that evidence may be presented if it has been “sufficiently established to have gained general acceptance in the particular field in which it belongs” (1) The second oldest is the Federal Rules of Evidence

The world is dramatically different today than it was one hundred years ago, and the time that it takes to see dramatic changes is growing rapidly. This is known as the Law of Accelerating Returns, and I think that it applies to more than technology, simply because technology fundamentally changes everything else. The Law of Accelerating Returns dictates that technology with continue to improve exponentially, and therefore we will see the world becoming more technologically advanced, faster. This

On October 27, 2016, we met to obtain clarification on your work destinations and work performed on the day prior. The eight hour day accounted for on work orders you submitted to the trade supervisor status did not align with the summary statements (copies attached) of work you provided for the morning of October 26, 2016. For October 26th, 2016 you accounted for three (3) hours of labor and one (1) hour of travel time on work order 30743482 for repairing lights at the Forte Center, two (2) hours

Research uses science and strict protocol to reach theories to explain hypothesis. Unfortunately some science incompletely follows protocol or leaves out entire parts of the process. These studies are considered pseudoscience. Brian Dunning wrote an article in 2007 called How to Spot Pseudoscience. This article gives 15 telltale signs to spotting a pseudoscience. In the article Carol Dweck Revisits the ‘Growth Mindset’ article (Dweck, 2015), the authors posit that a ‘Growth Mindset’ is the key to

The words “certainty” and “doubt” have many varying connotations and implications given a specific context. Even though the definitions of these two words are considered polar opposites of each other, there is one connection between the two that is undeniable: both certainty and doubt can be taken with a grain of salt, as they are all merely just opinions specific to the person that those concepts are presented to. Adding on to that, there is also a concept relating to this; the idea that there is

Chapter ten starts with Kuhn explaining that during scientific revolutions, scientists start to see different points of view when they look at familiar instruments. This is because they are being led by a new paradigm. He poses the idea of saying that scientists are even responding to a different world when this happens. These transformations are common occurrences of scientific training. Some experiments tell us nothing about paradigms while others vary based on the persons previous experience and

The inductive and deductive reasoning seems dissimilar to each other from all accounts. Inductive reasoning involves a scientist using series of correlated observations to reach or infer a conclusion while deductive reasoning involves predicting a specific result by following existing laws and general concepts that support a conclusion (OpenStax College, & Rice University, 2013). So, considering the definition of inductive reasoning and the definition of deductive reasoning and their mode of operations

The word science comes from the latin word scientia meaning knowledge, which is the condition or fact of being aware of something. Knowledge could be attained through various ways. It could be familiarity, gained through experience or learned through observation using one’s given senses. It could also be attained through cognitive reasoning, as coming to a conclusion. Consequently, the range of one knowledge varies and is tested through various types of examinations.Nevertheless, having knowledge

The Hypothesis that we are showing is that John Smith came to a complete stop on 6900 South Desert BLVD, El Paso TX and coasted into the intersection. The prosecution is stating that John Smith accelerated through the intersection at a red light. Using the formulas approved by the Court I was able to prove that my hypothesis is more likely than the prosecutions. I used the Google Earth program to assist with plotting points and paths. This software is accepted in State and Federal Courts. Two recent

Scientific Breakthroughs Pre-Science & Normal Science The standard paradigm, the currently accept concept and thought pattern, is interpreted as pre-science. Until this model no longer holds true for all observations in relation to its theory, it remains as the normal science. When “normal science [occurs], change accumulates slowly and research is “firmly based upon one or more past scientific achievements, achievements that some particular scientific community acknowledges for a time as supplying
