Thus, a set proper definition of criteria for employment ''method'' is in theory assessmentorder.|Authors List=Hakob Barseghyan|Formulated Year=2015|Prehistory=In classical philosophy of science, although theories and methods are closely bound up with one another, theories change but the scientific method does not. Three different types According to [[Paul Hoyningen-Huene|Hoyningen-Huene]],[[CiteRef::Hoyningen-Huene (2008)]][[CiteRef::Hoyningen-Huene (2013)]] from the time of the Ancients until the second half of criteria have been the 20th century science just was characterized by its method. [[Aristotle]] and his medieval successors identified so farscience with absolute certainty guaranteed by axiomatic proof. In the Prior and Posterior Analytics as well as the Organon, Aristotle identified three determinants of scientific method: criteria the aims of discovery/ordering/display of facts gained through passive observation, the nature of demarcationthe knowledge pursued as well as the explanatory causes of that kind of knowledge, and a logical system to aid the proper arrangement of and inferences from observation.[[CiteRef::Andersen and Hepburn (2015)]] In the West, these ideas were perpetuated and refined by medieval thinkers like [[Albertus Magnus]], [[Thomas Aquinas]], [[Robert Grosseteste]], [[Roger Bacon]], criteria [[William of acceptanceOckham]], [[Andreas Vesalius]], and criteria [[Giacomo Zabarella]]. They developed accounts of the acquisition of knowledge through observation and induction and rules for the justification and application of compatibilityinduction. Methods should not be confused with openly professed Scholars from the East such as [[Al-Kindi]], [[Alhazen]], and [[Methodology|methodologiesAverroes]]were more critical of the Ancients. The Scientific Revolution of the 16th, which prescribe how science ''ought'' to be done17th, and 18th centuries involved serious reflection on the legitimacy of the methods that facilitated the rapid advancements in scientific knowledge at the time. Thinkers like [[Galileo Galilei]] and [[Francis Bacon]] emphasized mathematical description and mechanical explanation as important constituents of a disinterested method. Methods should [[Isaac Newton]]’s Opticks (1704)[[CiteRef::Newton (1704)]] and Principia Mathematica (1726)[[CiteRef::Newton (1999)]] also be differentiated excluded non-epistemic values and subjectivity from research techniquesscientific practice through his implicit method of experiments and reasoning and his explicit methodological rules. Subsequent thinkers clarified and reinforced Newton’s approach, including [[Colin Maclaurin]], which are used [[Denis Diderot]], and [[Francesco Algarotti]]. However, some criticized the self-effacement of the scientist and inductivism. These thinkers include the likes of [[George Berkeley]] (1734),[[CiteRef::Berkeley (1992)]] who challenged the Newtonian image of science, and [[David Hume]]’s attack on induction (1739).[[CiteRef::Hume (2000)]] A search for new foundations to undergird the empirical method ensued in response to these critics. The most notable example is [[Immanuel Kant]]’s (1781) reply to Hume in the Critique of Pure Reason.[[CiteRef::Kant (1781)]] Kant’s contributions generated additional debates on science and methods. In centre stage during the 19th century was [[John S. Mill]]’s inductivism versus [[William Whewell]]’s hypothetico-deductivism. For both thinkers, theory construction acceptance and data gatheringmethod employment remained closely bound up.

== Current View ==Method is currently defined as a set of criteria for employment But philosophers like Larry Laudan rejected the notion that change in theory assessmentscience occurs all at once. These criteria Instead, he proposed that theories and methodologies can be change at different times. Contemporary studies attempt to reconcile sociological and rationalist accounts of three basic types: criteria of demarcationscientific knowledge and method to understand how methods change, criteria of especially in relation to theory acceptance, and criteria of compatibility.  <imagemap>Image: Method_and_Types_of_Criteria_Class_Diagram|History=The original definition of the term was proposed by Barseghyan in 2015.png|center|627pxrect 674 251 706 289 [[WikipediaCiteRef::Object_composition#Composition|This is a symbol Barseghyan (2015)]] When the ontology of composition.
