Any scientific experiment demands processing of the received results. The specifics are defined by the purposes which were set before experimenting. The analysis of results has to show importance of this experiment in the general scientific context.
Instruction
1. Estimate errors of the taken measurements. Inaccuracies can be caused by imperfection of devices and techniques. As a rule, the experiment does not give exact number, and it is possible to speak only about some range of values in which there is a true size. The more measurements it was taken, the more precisely result. Try not to allow the rough deviations connected with violation of a technique.
2. A main objective of an experiment – check of a scientific hypothesis, its confirmation or a denial. Analyze, the result received by you is how close to the stated assumption. Whether it is possible to judge the proved validity or falsehood of a hypothesis objectively?
3. Give the analysis of what historical prerequisites do an experiment demanded. It promotes search of the answer to what question? The problem has to be current, deepen knowledge of already known principles or put forward new.
4. What place is taken by your experiment in the context of modern science, the available data and the main teoretiko-applied objectives? Consider interrelations of results of experience with other facts. It is necessary to reveal possible contradictions and to formulate new tasks.
5. Do not consider scientific experience as the isolated phenomenon since similar approach does not bear in itself value. Study experiment prerequisites. The achieved results can be an incitement to emergence of new questions and tasks. The qualitative analysis of results assumes forecasting of it.
6. So, to analyze results, it is necessary to estimate errors of measurements, to establish their nature; to draw a conclusion on whether the attempt to explain some circle of the phenomena was confirmed; to formulate new questions. The proved hypothesis becomes the full scientific theory.
