Falsiblity is not the defining concept of science method. There are quite a few schools on that.
- kazinator 3y agoNobody said it's the defininig concept in the scientific method. It's just a characteristics that scientific claims (by whatever method they were produced) must have. Suppose we have not done any scientific investigation at all yet, and just have a hypothesis about something. That hypothesis should be a falsifiable statement, otherwise it is not something that can be investigated (e.g. by a scientific method). It doesn't define the method, but it defines the characteristics of some of the inputs and outputs.
