Evidence, Claims and Science in Society

Strong scientific claims use transparent methods and relevant evidence. Correlation may suggest a relationship but does not alone establish causation.

What to remember

  • Correlation alone does not prove causation.
  • Sample bias can distort conclusions.
  • Credible sources explain methods/evidence.
  • Limitations should be stated.
  • Scientific explanations may change with new evidence.

Key words

correlation — association between variables
causation — one factor produces change in another
bias — systematic favouring
credibility — trustworthiness
limitation — constraint on interpretation
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.
