When discussing the upcoming Super Bowl, John and Kamran were talking about the strengths and weaknesses of each team. While Kam
ran anticipated that one team was going to win and then backed up his prediction, John made no such statement. Instead, John commented on each team and what they would have to do in order to win. After the game, John noted that he had correctly analyzed the game, noting why the winning team had triumphed. Because none of his statements could be disproven, which concept of a science was John violating?a. falsifiabilityb. replicabilityc. correlation vs. causationd. overreliance on anecdotal evidence
Falsifiability is the character of scientific theories which are always likely to be refuted by experience but which can never be definitively confirmed or corroborated. In other words, we can state that the falsifiability criterion is the process of confronting a theory with observation data in an attempt to prove its falsity. John's statements about the super bowl cannot be refuted, so we can conclude that John violates the falsifiability principle.
Providing treatment for minor and moderate injuries can save days on recovery time hence controlling the outcome of the injury. Rest and ice bag massage is about the first and vital treatments given while avoiding movement of the injured part and heat so as to not inflate the injury thereby increasing the healing time for natural repair.
