Researchers exploring the concept of biological preparedness have not been able to consistently find that fear is acquired faste
r to a prepared stimulus than it is to an unprepared stimulus. This lack of research consistency is a problem for which of the six principles of scientific thinking?
In the principles of scientific thinking, applicability refers to whether we can recreate a certain same of study with same measurement. The purpose of this is so other researchers could repeat the same experiment and confirm whether the result of the previous works are actually correct.
In the case above, the researchers want to find out if fear is acquired faster to a prepared stimulus.
This will create a problem in term of applicability because the source of fear that exist in people extremely varies from one to another. It also constantly changed over the course of time. Because of this, it is impossible for other researchers to recreate the experiment in a similar situation. The result from using different subjects will be invalid and cant be used to confirm the previous experiments.
