WebbTheoreticity, underdetermination, and the disregard for bizarre scientific hypotheses. André Kukla. Philosophy of Science 68 (1):21-35 (2001) Abstract The problem of scientific disregard is the problem of accounting for why some putative theories that appear to be well-supported by empirical evidence nevertheless play no role in the scientific ...
On a new Definition of Theoreticity - Balzer - 1985 - Dialectica ...
WebbIt is shown that the criteria of T-theoreticity proposed by Balzer and Gähde lead to strongly counterintuitive and in this sense paradoxical results: most of the obviously empirical or at least nontheoretical terms come out as theoretical. This is demonstrated for a lot of theories in different areas. WebbThe importance of theoreticity has also been acknowledged by some who favour the rival model-theoretic approach to reconstruction [e.g. Niiniluoto 1980]. However, in spite of the prominence given to theoreticity and in spite of the fact that it is intuitively clear what theoreticity is, it is generally accepted that the attempts made biotin affecting thyroid
