Falsifiability
Falsifiability or
refutability of a
statement,
hypothesis, or
theory is the inherent possibility that it can be proven false. A statement is called
falsifiable if it is possible to conceive of an observation or an argument which negates the statement in question. In this sense,
falsify is synonymous with
nullify, meaning to invalidate or "show to be false".
