Is guessing at what you think will happen - based on what you have read - or observed?

Only if you have read or observed something similar in the past.
All guesses of future events is based on the sum total of your own past experiences, and is the major function of the brain.
Note that you live ONLY in the past, but that manipulating the future is an absolute requirement for survival. Think of life as driving a car with the windshield painted black ... your skill in using what you can learn from your rear view mirrors is critical for getting to your destination.
More Information:
For most, in trying to predict future events, intellectual knowledge is filtered by experientialknowledge. It is the integration of these two sources of information that forms the main resource upon which the projection of future outcomes is based.

How could you test a prediction?
This is a process wherein a forecast of events is based on observation. Predictions can reliable only when there is regularity in the changes observed. Predictions are also safe if the variables can be controlled or if there are less variables that can possibly affect predictions. One can predict what is to happen at a certain time when predictions are based on observations and past experience. Predictions, therefore, can be within or beyond observed events.Interpolation is a prediction made based on observed data, while extrapolation is a forecast beyond observed data.
What are the differences between observed and expected?
Expecting it what you think or assume will happen While observing is watching something happen before you Example: you expect the monkey to take the banana. but you observe that it did in fact not take it.
What is a hypothesis variable?
A hypothesis is not a variable...it is something that you think will happen based on reasoning and observations, before doing an experiment.
What is the part of the experiment that does not depend on the variable being observed?
I think it is hypothesis because in the light of the observed facts and previously collected information scientists make'intelligent guesses' as to what may be the possible answer to this particular question.
