Talk:Hypothetico-deductive model

message: The Hypothetico-deductive method is the name given to Popper's philosophy of science. Although a few other philosophers had similar ideas, it was Popper who developed the logic of falsification. Go back to the version before the interference of , who is now banned, and you will see that the article once supported this view. Falsification and Hypothetico-deductive method are not mentioned in Charles Peirce. Or to put the same point in another way, the statements that Aristotle, Peirce and Hemple all knew about hypothetico-deductive method - well, shall we say that they need supporting citations?

message: The logic and philosophy here are pretty shallow. Perhaps it should just be re-directed to the much more complete Falsification article. Banno 22:37, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

message: I believe that, with the current revision, the 2nd paragraph is now a straw man.  The implied hypothesis of the 2nd paragraph is that all ravens are black.  Use of an empty (thus nonstringent) test is not "corroboration" of the hypothesis, merely because it does not and cannot refute the hypothesis. We only count as a test those elements that could conceivably falsify the hypothesis.  Then the 2nd paragraph seems polntless.  --Thomasmeeks 00:19, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Rather than delete the 2nd and 3rd paragraphs of the article (suggested above), I have attempted to strengthen them in the current Edit, adding responses of advocates for the hypothectico-deductive method.  --Thomasmeeks 21:07, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Is 2nd paragraph of the article now a straw man?

message: The article presents Popper as the popularizer of the hypothetico-deductive approach. This is obviously complete nonsense. Popper was an opponent of the existence of any approach that infers something from evidence (or that even holds that evidence exists), be it a hypothetical inference or any other. Popper also clearly held that no corroboration in the sense used in the article exists. As Miller correctly says in his Crtitical Rationalism, Popper's approach is a hypothetico-destructive, not a hypothetico-deductive one. And Popper went further and held that scientific method does not exist, but that the hypothetico-destructive approach is universal and applies to anything at all; not in any way restricted or special to science. --rtc (talk) 01:30, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: At least one citation from Popper with page numbers, to back up your statement, is in order here. Since the term 'hypothetico-destructive' is so distinctive, Popper would have included it, if he espoused it. If he originated the school of thought, but did not name it then we need an article with a link to this one. --Ancheta Wis (talk) 11:37, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It is right at the beginning of chapter 6 in said book Crtitical Rationalism. The reference given to the index in Conjectures and Refutations in this article point to places that talk about hypothetico-deductive systems, not about a hypothetico-deductive method, and Popper does not talk about his own position, but about historical theories. --rtc (talk) 02:49, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

message: You know, you merely need to connect the Scientitic method and HDM to complete this article. Please, do so and don't mess around... Cheers! 109.189.67.107 (talk) 16:41, 8 March 2013 (UTC)
