Science_Versus_Pseudoscience

Science versus Pseudoscience What is the relationship between science and technology' The relationship is like a marriage. They are complex and dynamic. Technology clearly relates to cultural and commercial demands. Science studies tangible truths. Science does not always relate to media tangible demands. Describe and evaluate the possible concerns and possible benefits associated with science and technology in today’s society. Provide examples. There are many benefits to science and technology. With the technology we have today to try to find cures for many diseases such as AIDS or cancer. Science and technology has advance over the years. Another example is the use of computers or the simple inventions like light bulbs. The medical advancements that have benefited me personal are the diagnosis of my son and the study of his genetic disorder. Even though science does not have a concrete diagnosis of his life, it has offered a study of more information that we have had in the past years. Define pseudoscience. Pseudoscience is a term that is used to define a discipline, an area of investigation that has the trappings of science. Pseudoscience is a claim, belief, or practice which is presented as scientific, which does not adhere to a valid scientific method, lacks supporting evidence, cannot be reliably tested, or otherwise lacks scientific status Pseudoscience is a claim, belief, or practice which is presented as scientific, which does not adhere to a valid scientific method, lacks supporting evidence, cannot be reliably tested, or otherwise lacks scientific status Pseudoscience is a claim, belief, or practice which is presented as scientific, which does not adhere to a valid scientific method, lacks supporting evidence, cannot be reliably tested, or otherwise lacks scientific status.

Give an example of pseudoscience in the media or in a popular advertisement, and explain why it is considered a pseudoscience. So-called herbal remedies and supplements sold over-the-counter for a variety of ailments in almost every grocery store and drug store are not supported in any case by any scientific research whatsoever, but rather entirely by folklore, tradition and magical thinking. Yet such supplements often do contain active ingredients that have strong physiological effects, almost all dangerous, almost none desirable, and never mentioned on the product label! The result: a genuine public health crisis that makes no headlines at all unless a celebrity or athlete happens to die of poisoning. How would you define ethics' To distinguish what is right and wrong. Ethics are having values. A means by to categorize what one’s value is. Having responsibility and also what your morals are of a certain thing. What ethical issues are of most concern in science' Why' The facts that are predicted in a study. Is it true or the implications of the research' It also could be interpreting current states. How might ethics influence the scientific process' Provide examples. Ethics is part of the “warrant” for science; that is, science can be excellent only if its practitioners conduct their research in accordance with the accepted practices in their fields. For all scientific fields, ethical behavior includes adherence to the principles and practices of valid experimentation (the scientific method, accurate and sufficient sampling of data, accurate record keeping and reporting, etc.), education and mentoring, unbiased peer and expert review, and communication of results to the scientific community.
