context of discovery versus context of justification  

Définition

  • The basic assumption behind the discovery/justification (D-J) or “two-context” distinction, as employed by Hans Reichenbach and the Logical Empiricists—but also by Karl Popper—is that there exists a general logic of justification in science but no logic of discovery. This entry explains the aim of the upholders of this distinction (once considered important for genuine scientific method and thus shaping official philosophy of science for a certain period), reviews criticisms against it, and assesses some positive uses of it. [Source: Encyclopedia of Philosophy and the Social Sciences; Context of Discovery versus Context of Justification]
