      even well-researched, comprehensive scientific reports often draw conclusions that we later learn are inaccurate.

      Often, scientists begin testing a theory with a correlational study, which can show a connection between two things.
      But a positive result doesn’t mean that one thing causes another. For example, a famous study of middle school students showed that youth with larger foot sizes had better reading comprehension. But having larger feet does not cause someone to be a better reader. The correlation most likely had more to do with the age of the students.

      Yet researchers often begin with a correlational study because they are shorter and less expensive to conduct in contrast to more robust randomized-controlled trials.

      Contrary to what many non-scientists seem to believe, the key feature of empirical testing is not that it’s infallible but that it’s self-correcting. As the physicist john wheeler said, ‘our whole problem is to make mistakes as fast possible.'”

      the trouble comes when media sources report the results of correlational studies as proven facts, instead of the first step in a years-long research process.

      Another problem occurs when science reporters take research findings out of context. Instead, we must take into account the conditions under which research is conducted. This is especially important in social science research, where it is more difficult to control for all of the variables in a given situation.

      Consider the following example: A feather and a lead ball dropped from the same height will reach the ground at the same time — but only if there is no air resistance. Typically, scientific laws allow us to predict a specific behavior only under certain conditions. If those conditions don’t hold, the law doesn’t tell us what will happen.

      The take home message?

      Scientific research provides important information to help guide decisions about our lives. But it’s important to think critically about the research you read, and be open to new developments as scientists learn even more about our world and how it works.

              Don't be so presumptuous to assume I am wrong simply because you believe you are right. I. live. here.

                Because I disagree with some members on here, I was asked if I even owned a daycare business, showed statistics that I already knew about, like I haven't done my research, and was told because I agreed with someone that said the government is lying to us, which the government right ow IS Trump and his cabinets that I will never see, how is that any different?

                        No but it goes to show a few things about trends with certain people.

                            You are making this about politics-its not. It’s about personal decisions regarding life and business. I say- meet this virus head on. I mentioned earlier here during this pandemic that, like the flu, everyone will “get” this virus. It’s inevitable. The difference-is how we fight it.

                            Some, wish to engage it and others choose to stay at home. I believe in my immune system. I’m the herd immunity type. To you, that will mean that I’m a Trump supporter. I really don’t care what you think. It’s common sense knowing humanity doesn’t always need a scientist or doctor to survive.

                            Today is Pearl Harbor Day. When the war broke out, people were not hiding in their homes. 15 and 16 year olds were lying about their ages to join the military because they wanted to fight the enemy. Yes, fighting to die if necessary to save America. Better to die on your feet then cowering in isolation.

                            We are losing this war to COVID-19 because we are letting the fear of it crush our way of life and economy. Yes, WE are the enemy. If you prefer to stay hunkered down in your home, that is your right as an American. But you should not tell the rest of us how to live because of your fear for dying or your fear of our “ignorance”.

                            I have not seen one ounce of empathy from you. You are as rigid as the politics you spout.

                                I never made this about politics, I dont hunker down in my house and don't live my life.., I am not saying anyone is not following guidelines here, what I said was the reason that it is spreading and getting worse is that people in general are not doing what they are supposed to be doing, if you think that is you, well that is on you not me,and you think I made it political because I agreed that the government is lying to us when the only government we have right now is trump and his cabinet???...
