Evidence and Science in Society

Models simplify reality and have limitations. Claims should use relevant evidence and credible sources; science applications can have social and environmental consequences.

What to remember

  • Models have limitations.
  • Correlation does not automatically prove causation.
  • Credible sources explain evidence.
  • Scientific applications can have unintended effects.
  • Explanations can change with stronger evidence.

Key words

model — simplified representation
source credibility — trustworthiness based on evidence/expertise
correlation — association between variables
limitation — constraint on interpretation
evidence — information bearing on a claim
How to use this drill: review the short notes when learning, then close them on later attempts and practise from memory. The rotating bank delays a full set repeat for 25 attempts on the same browser.
