Chapter 4 from the PCAST Report

This chapter defines the components of scientific validity. You can skip pages 56-59 which concern validity as applied (which correlates with Rule 702(d)).

You can acess the report at the link below, and I have also added a pdf of Chapter 4 to our Moodle pages under "Class 6."
