It's when you repeat an experiment over and over again to see whether you'll get the same results all the time, some of the time, or never. Being able to predict what's going to happen is usually seen as proof of that your theory about how things work is correct.

Not much more embarassing and career damaging than reporting fantastic results (like room temperature nuclear fusion) that can't be repeated. Also, data can be charted for greater accuracy once you get verifiable results.

Also, repeating it would enable you to compare the results easier with others, which would tell you whether the experiment we reliable, which it would be if the results were similar.

The number of trials preformed during a scientific experiment, with the purpose of receiving a more accurate result (minimizing the effects of errors or outliers).
Wiki User

What is it called when scientist repeat experiments to reduce errors?
Repeated trials
What is the definition of wave pulse?
a wave pulse is a short wave with no repeated oscillations
Which is the correct definition of stress fracture?
A break that occurs from repeated stress to a bone over time.
What the definition of internal noise?
phenomenon of repeated presentations of the same stimulus producing a range of slightly different internal representations
What do Repeated measurements that are close to one another demonstrate?
Repeated measurements that are close to one another demonstrate reproducibility.
What is a Definition of trials in the scientific method?
It means how many times it is used in or thought of in an expieriment
What are trials in an experiment?
Trials are the amount of times a certain experiment is repeated.
What is the definition of relaibility?
The word "reliability" can be defined as dependability. It can also be defined as having the quality of being reliable or dependable. Another definition is something that produces the same result in repeated experiments or trials.
What can you use to find experimental probabilities?
Repeated trials.
What do the scientists do their experimental tests more than once so they can reduce the effects of chance errors this is called conducting?
Repeated Trials
Why are repeated trials important?
because they use the effect on probability.
What probability is based on repeated trials of an experiment?
Experimental Probability
What are experimental probabilities based on?
A large number of repeated trials.
How do scientists make sure that their results are valid?
repeated trials
What increases the validity of an experiment?
Repeated trials of said experiment.
How do you get relative frequency?
The relative frequency of an event, from repeated trials, is the number of times the event occurs as a proportion of the total number of trials - provided that the trials are independent.
