|Description=Any ''method'' is essentially a set of criteria which can become [[Employed Method|employed]] by an epistemic agent in theory evaluation. Methods can be very general and apply to theories of a variety of types (e.g. ''the hypothetico-deductive method''), or very specific (e.g. ''the double-blind trial method'' of drug testing).
Methods of theory evaluation should be differentiated from ''research techniques'', which are used in theory construction and data gathering.
