Scientific Method Bias

The specific bias where one treats a particular understanding of the scientific method—usually the simplified hypothesis-experiment-conclusion model from textbooks—as the exclusive, universal, and timeless template for all legitimate knowledge-seeking. Scientific Method Bias dismisses historical sciences (geology, astronomy, evolutionary biology) because they can't run experiments, social sciences because they can't fully control variables, and any inquiry that doesn't match the template as somehow less valid. It mistakes one useful procedure for the procedure, one historical development for the timeless standard, one cultural product for the universal logic of inquiry.
Scientific Method Bias Example: "He claimed history wasn't a real science because you can't run experiments on the past—pure Scientific Method Bias, mistaking one field's methods for the definition of science itself."
