D
A discipline is said to be accepted by an epistemic agent if that agent accepts the core questions specified in the discipline’s delineating theory as well as the delineating theory itself. +
A [[Discipline|discipline]] can have any number of [[Theory|theories]]. Each theory can be included into any number disciplines. +
There is such a thing as a [[Discipline|discipline]]. +
A [[Discipline|discipline]] has at least one [[Core Question|core question]]. +
A [[Discipline|discipline]] has one [[Delineating Theory|delineating theory]]. +
A [[Discipline|discipline]] has at least one [[Question|question]]. Each question can be included in any number disciplines. +
A discipline is characterized by (1) a non-empty set of core questions ''Q'' and (2) the delineating theory stating that ''Q'' are the core questions of the discipline. +
If an accepted theory is taken as the final truth, it will always remain accepted; no new theory on the subject can ever be accepted. +
The ''dogmatism no theory change'' theorem is a deductive consequence of the first law, the second law, and the third law. +
All substantive methods are necessarily dynamic. +
The ''dynamic substantive methods'' theorem follows from the synchronism of method rejection theorem and fallibilism. +
E
There is such a thing as [[Element Decay|element decay]]. +
[[Element Decay|Element Decay]] is a non-scientonomic phenomenon. +
A method is said to be ''employed'' at time ''t'' if, at time ''t'', theories become accepted only when their acceptance is permitted by the method. +
A method is said to be employed if its requirements constitute the actual expectations of the community. +
An action of an epistemic agent that involves an epistemic element. +
There is such a thing as an [[Epistemic Action|epistemic action]]. +
An agent capable of taking epistemic stances towards epistemic elements. +
