Empirical sciences, also known as empirical research or empirical studies, refer to disciplines that rely on empirical evidence, derived from observation or experimentation, to formulate theories and test hypotheses.
These sciences include both natural and social sciences, such as physics, biology, psychology, sociology, and economics. Empirical methods involve systematic data collection and analysis to investigate phenomena and establish patterns or relationships.
By grounding their findings in empirical evidence, researchers in these disciplines aim to develop reliable knowledge about the world and make informed decisions based on observable facts.
