Several members of the scientific community remarked that the central lunar highlands resembled regions on Earth that were created by volcanic processes and hypothesized the same might be true on the Moon.

The Big Bang is a well-tested scientific theory and is widely accepted within the scientific community.

While the scientific community was once divided between supporters of the Big Bang and those of alternative cosmological models, most scientists became convinced that some version of the Big Bang scenario best fit observations after the discovery of the cosmic microwave background radiation in 1964, and especially when its spectrum ( i. e., the amount of radiation measured at each wavelength ) was found to match that of thermal radiation from a black body.

The consensus of the scientific community is that " breatharianism " is potentially lethal pseudoscience, and indeed several adherents of these practices have died from starvation.

Cryptozoologists claim there have been cases where species now accepted by the scientific community were initially considered superstition, hoaxes, delusions or misidentifications.

This calculation convinced the scientific community that quantum theory could give agreement with experiment.

It has been rejected by the mainstream scientific community because the original experimental results could not be replicated consistently and reliably,

Despite some claims that shotgun sequencing was in some ways less accurate than the clone-by-clone method chosen by the Human Genome Project, the technique became widely accepted by the scientific community and is still the de facto standard used today.

Parapsychology explores this possibility, but the existence of the paranormal is not accepted by the scientific community.

The LINC proved to attract intense interest in the scientific community, and has since been referred to as the first real minicomputer, a machine that was small and inexpensive enough to be dedicated to a single task even in a small lab.

Duesberg's claim that antiviral medication causes AIDS is regarded as disproven by the scientific community.

The consensus in the scientific community is that the Duesberg hypothesis has been refuted by a large and growing mass of evidence showing that HIV causes AIDS, that the amount of virus in the blood correlates with disease progression, that a plausible mechanism for HIV's action has been proposed, and that anti-HIV medication decreases mortality and opportunistic infection in people with AIDS.

However, Darwinism is also used neutrally within the scientific community to distinguish modern evolutionary theories, sometimes called " NeoDarwinism ", from those first proposed by Darwin.

The Space Merchants, like such humanist documents as Joseph Wood Krutch's The Measure Of Man and C. S. Lewis's The Abolition Of Man, considers what may result from the scientific study of human nature.

Since the change to better nutrition, he feels he can report on improvements in health, though he considers the following statements observations and not scientific proof.

Whilst Richard Wiseman considers remote viewing to be proven by the current standards of scientific endeavour, he uses this to call for higher standard of evidence when studying the paranormal.

Systematic biology ( hereafter called simply systematics ) is the field that ( a ) provides scientific names for organisms, ( b ) describes them, ( c ) preserves collections of them, ( d ) provides classifications for the organisms, keys for their identification, and data on their distributions, ( e ) investigates their evolutionary histories, and ( f ) considers their environmental adaptations.

The general scientific consensus formerly ( before 2001 ) considered them early limbless arthropods, but now considers them early deuterostomes.

Lakoff's reliance on empirical scientific evidence, i. e. specifically falsifiable predictions, in the 1987 work and in Philosophy in the Flesh ( 1999 ) suggests that the cognitive-metaphor position has no objections to the scientific method, but instead considers the scientific method a finely developed reasoning system used to discover phenomena which are subsequently understood in terms of new conceptual metaphors ( such as the metaphor of fluid motion for conducted electricity, which is described in terms of " current " " flowing " against " impedance ," or the gravitational metaphor for static-electric phenomena, or the " planetary orbit " model of the atomic nucleus and electrons, as used by Niels Bohr ).

Due to its artifactual nature, psychiatric comorbidity has been considered as a Kuhnian anomaly leading the DSM to a scientific crisis and a comprehensive review on the matter considers comorbidity as an epistemological challenge to modern psychiatry.

The scientific community considers Johnson's opinions on evolution and AIDS to be pseudoscience.

The scientific community considers the evidence that HIV causes AIDS to be conclusive and rejects AIDS-denialist claims as pseudoscience based on conspiracy theories, faulty reasoning, cherry picking, and misrepresentation of mainly outdated scientific data.

Lowery and DeFleur argue the book was much more than a simple research report: it was an effort to interpret the authors ' research within a framework of conceptual schemes, theoretical issues, and research findings drawn broadly from the scientific study of small groups Unlike the hypodermic needle model, which considers mass media effects to be direct, the two-step flow model stresses human agency.

He considers the scientific work done during the Baroque period as crucial to the Enlightenment.

Georgiev considers decipherment by analysis of root-words alone to be devoid of scientific value.

While the terms " scientific management " and " Taylorism " are often treated as synonymous, an alternative view considers Taylorism as the first form of scientific management, which was followed by new iterations ; thus in today's management theory, Taylorism is sometimes called ( or considered a subset of ) the classical perspective ( meaning a perspective that's still respected for its seminal influence although it is no longer state-of-the-art ).

Flood geology contradicts the scientific consensus in geology and paleontology, chemistry, biology, geophysics and stratigraphy, and the scientific community considers it to be pseudoscience.

At least one herpetologist has considered the species a subspecies of Plestiodon tetragrammus under the scientific name P. tetragrammus callicephalus, but the more common classification considers it a separate species based on differences in appearance and the distinct geographic distribution.
