|Question=What does it mean to say that a theory is '''accepted'''? How should ''theory acceptance'' be ''defined''?
|Description=One of the tasks of scientonomy is to explain transitions from one ''accepted'' theory to the next. Thus, ''acceptance'' is a key concept in current scientonomy. Traditionally, the terms ''acceptance,'' ''use,'' and ''pursuit'' have not been distinguished. Confusion between the three terms leads to serious misunderstanding, thus their clarification is of great importance.[[CiteRef::Barseghyan (2015)|p. 30]]
