    Scientific investigation involves identifying a problem through observation, developing a hypothesis about potential relationships between variables, collecting and analyzing quantitative and qualitative data to test the hypothesis, and drawing a conclusion about whether the hypothesis is accepted or rejected. The steps are important to obtain scientific knowledge, minimize bias when testing hypotheses, and understand regulations or laws based on evidence.

    observation.
    - Observations conditions or factors which
    will lead to can change in a scientific
    questions or investigation
    inferences.

    Whether the hypothesis is


    Accepted /
    Rejected
    The Importance of Scientific Investigation Method
    a) To obtain and collect scientific knowledge for reference in the
    coming future
    b) To minimize the influence of assumption, prejudice or biasness in
    an investigation when testing a hypothesis
    c) To enable a regulation or law to be understood.
