! Order: <br><p class="sfFieldDescription" style="font-size:0.7em; color:gray;">First-order questions are questions about the process of scientific change. Second-order questions are questions about first-order questions or theories. E.g. ''How do theories become accepted?'' is a first-order question in scientonomy, whereas ''Is the law of theory acceptance a tautology?'' is a second-order question.</p>
