In experimental science this is done by successively ‘controlling’ for all variables that could possibly be candidates. If one is found, it can be added to the notation for change, and we thus obtain a graphic representation of the cause/effect relation. \n\nwhere “b,c,d,e” are other elements found present at t1 and “e” has been isolated as the element that is to be considered the primary source or the efficient cause responsible for the change in “X”. To this must be added that science always strives to go beyond the mere correlation of cause and effect and tries to conceive of a ‘model’ that shows how the change could be brought about. \t \n\nI have presented this approach to a conceptual analysis of causation in some detail, because it opens a way of sorting out the confusion which, in my view, has bedeviled the discussion about teleology.","highlights":Ӷ^"jQuery32109306024812658562":^°°,^"jQuery32109306024812658562":^°°,^"jQuery32109306024812658562":^°°Ӻ,"text":"","order":"mw-content-text","category":"Prämisse3","data_creacio":1576070596966°
