Posted today on the other side of the planet at Anecdote, was this interesting article about a means to help detect whether to believe claims made by a vendor, presenter, etc. It's interesting and worth review:
- How reliable is the source of the claim?
- Does the source make similar claims?
- Have the claims been verified by somebody else?
- Does this fit with the way the world works?
- Has anyone tried to disprove the claim?
- Where does the preponderance of evidence point?
- Is the claimant playing by the rules of science
- Is the claimant providing positive evidence?
- Does the new theory account for as many phenomena as the old theory?
- Are personal beliefs driving the claim?
very nice blog
