Allchin's Shoehorn, or Why Science Is Hypothetico-Deductive.
Lawson, Anton E.
Science and Education, v12 n3 p331-37 Apr 2003
Criticizes Allchin's article about Lawson's analysis of Galileo's discovery of Jupiter's moons. Suggests that a careful analysis of the way humans spontaneously process information and reason supports a general hypothetico-deductive theory of human information processing, reasoning, and scientific discovery.
