The Scientific Method01:32

The Scientific Method

The scientific method is a detailed, empirical problem-solving process used by biologists and other scientists. This iterative approach involves formulating a question based on observation, developing a testable potential explanation for the observation (called a hypothesis), making and testing predictions based on the hypothesis, and using the findings to create new hypotheses and predictions.Generally, predictions are tested using carefully-designed experiments. Based on the outcome of these...
The Scientific Method03:50

The Scientific Method

Chemistry is an empirical science. Scientists often pose questions to understand the chemistry in everyday life and seek answers to these questions. To achieve this, scientists follow a definitive series of steps that together make up the Scientific Method. This approach involves making observations, asking questions, building a hypothesis, conducting experiments, analyzing results, and forming a conclusion.
The Scientific Method02:40

The Scientific Method

Research is what makes the difference between facts and opinions. Facts are observable realities, and opinions are personal judgments, conclusions, or attitudes that may or may not be accurate. In the scientific community, facts can be established only using evidence collected through empirical research.
Psychology as a Science01:13

Psychology as a Science

Psychology, as a scientific discipline, aims to understand the mind and behavior through rigorous and systematic methods. The foundation of psychological research is evidence-based, relying heavily on the scientific method to derive and validate knowledge. This structured approach ensures that findings are reliable, valid, and applicable to broader contexts.
The scientific method in psychology involves six critical steps: making observations, formulating hypotheses, conducting tests, analyzing...
What is Natural Selection?01:32

What is Natural Selection?

Natural selection is an evolutionary process in which individuals with survival-promoting traits reproduce at higher rates. These favorable traits become more common within a population or species. Naturally selected traits initially arise via random genetic mutations. In order for selection to occur, there must be variation within a population, the trait controlling the variation must be heritable, and there must be an evolutionary advantage for variation in the trait.The Theory of Natural...
The Scientific Method in Nursing Process01:18

The Scientific Method in Nursing Process

The scientific method provides the foundation for any research. It is the most reliable and objective of all forms of gaining knowledge and guides in applying research-based evidence in practice and conducting future research.
When using research findings to change practice, one must understand the process used to guide a study. The scientific method is a systematic, step-by-step process that supports the data's validity, reliability, and generalizability. As a result, findings can be safely...

    Area of Science:

    • Scholarly communication
    • Scientific, Technical, and Medical (STM) publishing
    • Information science

    Background:

    • The Scientific, Technical, and Medical (STM) publishing landscape has undergone significant transformations over the past two decades, marked by mergers and acquisitions.
    • Continuous growth in publications, technological innovation, and academic pressures have necessitated the development of novel business models and publishing formats.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review key issues impacting the STM publishing sector and the scientific community.
    • To provide a foundational framework for clinical practitioners and researchers navigating these changes.
    • To analyze the implications of increased online information access on publishers, authors, and readers.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review of the STM publishing landscape.
    • Analysis of industry trends, including mergers, acquisitions, and technological innovations.
    • Examination of evolving business models and publishing formats in response to digital access.

    Main Results:

    • The STM publishing environment is characterized by consolidation and innovation.
    • New business models and digital formats have emerged due to increased publication volume and academic demands.
    • Wider online information access presents both opportunities and challenges for stakeholders.

    Conclusions:

    • The potential rise of a "single-article economy" in STM publishing is a significant concern.
    • This shift towards "just-in-time" literature usage may diminish readers' awareness of journal context and brand.
    • There is a risk of losing the broader cultural and academic framework when consuming information solely at the article level.
