- Inductivism abstract "Inductivism is the traditional model of scientific method explained in 1620 by Francis Bacon, vowing to subvert allegedly traditional thinking. In Baconian model, a scientist observes nature, tentatively poses a modest axiom to generalize an observed pattern, confirms it by many observations, ventures a modestly broader axiom, and confirms that, too, by many more observations, while discarding disconfirmed axioms. Axiomatization grows ever broader but never appreciably exceeds careful, extensive observation while scientists keep accurate records for collaboration. Thus freed from preconceptions but impelled beyond a lone human's observational power, science gradually uncover nature's material and causal structure.At 1740, David Hume found multiple obstacles to empiricism, and stressed the illogicality of enumerative induction—that is, unrestricted generalization from particular instances to all instances, and stating a universal law—as humans observe sequence of sensory events, not cause and effect. Humans find only constant conjunction of sensory experiences, neither logical nor natural necessity or impossibility among events, and simply imagine causality. Later philosophers would select, highlight, and nickname Humean principles—Hume's fork, problem of induction, and Hume's law—although Hume apparently accepted the empirical sciences and even the human sciences, too, as inductive, after all.Immanuel Kant sought to save both metaphysics and Newton's law of universal gravitation from doubt by radical empiricism. Through a kaleidoscope of "pure reason", that is, rationalism, Kant inferred that the mind contains innate categories that, as the necessity bridging events, arrange sense data into experience—including those of space and time—how the mind's innate constants lay the "intuitive bridge" to theory choice. Kant's transcendental idealism discarded scientific realism, however, and launched German idealism—increasingly speculative metaphysics—while philosophers continued awkward confidence in empirical sciences as inductive.Refining Baconian inductivism, J S Mill posed his own inductivist methods as the more actual manner of science. In the 1830s, opposing metaphysics, Auguste Comte explicated positivism, which, unlike Baconian model, emphasized predictions, confirming them, and laying scientific laws irrefutable by theology or metaphysics. Finding experiencing to show uniformity of nature and thereby justify enumerative induction, Mill accepted positivism—the first modern philosophy of science.Nearing 1840, William Whewell found the inductive sciences, so called, not so simple, and asked recognition of "superinduction", an explanatory scope or principle invented by the mind to unite facts, but not present in the facts. Mill would have none of hypotheticodeductivism, posed by Whewell as science's method. By 1880, C S Peirce had clarified the basis of deductive inference and, although recognizing induction, proposed a third type of inference that Peirce called "abduction", now otherwise termed inference to the best explanation (IBE).Since the 1920s, not asserting inductivism per se but condoning it, and seeking to justify belief in the truth of scientific laws and theories, the logical positivists accepted hypotheticodeductivism, too, but launched verificationism whereby Rudolf Carnap tried but never succeeded to formalize an inductive logic whereby a universal law's probability of truth could be quantified as "degree of confirmation". Asserting a variant of hypotheticodeductivism termed falsificationism, Karl Popper from the 1930s onward was the first especially vocal critic of inductivism as an utterly flawed model of science. In 1963, Popper declared that enumerative induction is a myth. Two years later, Gilbert Harman claimed that enumerative induction is a masked effect of IBE.Thomas Kuhn's 1962 book—explaining that periods of normal science as but a paradigm of science are each overturned by revolutionary science whose paradigm becomes the normal science anew—dissolved logical positivism's grip in the Anglosphere, and inductivism fell. Besides Popper and Kuhn, other postpostivist philosophers of science—including Paul Feyerabend, Imre Lakatos, and Larry Laudan—have all but unanimously rejected inductivism. Among them, those who have asserted scientific realism—that scientific theory can and does offer approximately true understanding of nature's unobservable aspects—have tended to claim that scientists develop approximately true theories about nature through IBE. And yet IBE, which, so far, cannot be trained, lacks particular rules of inference. By the 20st century's turn, inductivism's heir was Bayesianism.".
