The scientific method is a method for conducting an objective investigation. The scientific method involves making observations and conducting an experiment to test a hypothesis. The number of steps of the scientific method isn’t standard. Some texts and instructors break up the scientific method into more or fewer steps. Some people start listing steps with the hypothesis‚ but since a hypothesis is based on observations (even if they aren’t formal)‚ the hypothesis usually is considered to be the

Methods of studying cortical specialisation are divided into two groups: the invasive‚ and the non-invasive. The invasive methods are those‚ in which something is injected into the brain‚ to find out what the problem is. The non-invasive methods are more ethical‚ as there are no changes in the brain area‚ therefore no damage can be done to it. One of the invasive methods of cortical specialisation is neurosurgery. It involves manipulating with the structures within the brain. There are two main
