The scientific theory is a conceptual framework used to explain facts or phenomena and to make predictions.

The systematization of the observations and the empirical data collected might derive from a scientific theory that explains the analyzed phenomenon.

A scientific theory is a knowledge that has been contrasted in several ways.
