COMD 5070 exam 14 features of the scientific method - correct answer 1) Science is empirical- we collect data and interpret it (based on data) 2) Science is Deterministic - Things are not random. Because of cause and effect, we can draw generalizations from the data that we have and extrapolate 3) Science is predictive - if you do this, then that will happen. 4) Science is parsimonious - use the simplest explanation possible, try to describe things in economical terms so we can understand it....
