34-499: There are a number of hypotheses about the meaning of the city's name. In Gulf Arabic it stands for "outstanding," "masterly," In Nejdi Arabic the name stands for a place travellers gathered before leaving, so that's way it called Al-mubarraz because the people get to it before their trips. The sheikh Muhammad Alabdulaqader write that the people of Al-Ahsa gather there first before leaving for Al-hajj. so it's agreed between almost all Al-mubarraz people. This last, however, seems like

68-472: A folk etymology and folklore than reality. About the heritage relics, in Al-mubarraz there is two ancient castles; Sahood castle " Qasr Sahood " and Muhaires castle " Qasr Muhaires" . The foundation of Sahood palace date back four thousand years, while the construction dates back to three hundred years only. Muhaires castle was built at the beginning of Saudi era by the prince Muhaires. Also there

102-495: A few years ago. The neighborhoods in Al-Mubarraz are divided into two sections, the first section is the old neighborhoods like ; Asseiaseb, Al-shu'ba, Al-ouyoni, Al-masoudi, Al-mugabel, Al-otban, qaseba And Al-hazem . while the second section includes the new neighborhoods, for example, Al-yahya neighborhood, Al-mubarraz, Al-shroufia, Arrashdia A,B,C, Almsherfa, Al-nuzha, Boshabal, Al-gassania, Mahasen neighborhood which

136-422: A hypothesis. In common usage in the 21st century, a hypothesis refers to a provisional idea whose merit requires evaluation. For proper evaluation, the framer of a hypothesis needs to define specifics in operational terms. A hypothesis requires more work by the researcher in order to either confirm or disprove it. In due course, a confirmed hypothesis may become part of a theory or occasionally may grow to become

170-461: A method used by mathematicians, that of "investigating from a hypothesis". In this sense, 'hypothesis' refers to a clever idea or to a convenient mathematical approach that simplifies cumbersome calculations . Cardinal Bellarmine gave a famous example of this usage in the warning issued to Galileo in the early 17th century: that he must not treat the motion of the Earth as a reality, but merely as

204-557: A number of important statistical tests which are used to test the hypotheses. Mount Hypothesis in Antarctica is named in appreciation of the role of hypothesis in scientific research. Several hypotheses have been put forth, in different subject areas: hypothesis [...]— Working hypothesis , a hypothesis suggested or supported in some measure by features of observed facts, from which consequences may be deduced which can be tested by experiment and special observations, and which it

238-460: A particular characteristic. In entrepreneurial setting, a hypothesis is used to formulate provisional ideas about the attributes of products or business models. The formulated hypothesis is then evaluated, where the hypothesis is proven to be either "true" or "false" through a verifiability - or falsifiability -oriented experiment . Any useful hypothesis will enable predictions by reasoning (including deductive reasoning ). It might predict

272-438: A problem is commonly referred to as a hypothesis—or, often, as an " educated guess " —because it provides a suggested outcome based on the evidence. However, some scientists reject the term "educated guess" as incorrect. Experimenters may test and reject several hypotheses before solving the problem. According to Schick and Vaughn, researchers weighing up alternative hypotheses may take into consideration: A working hypothesis

306-467: A synthesis. Concepts in Hempel's deductive-nomological model play a key role in the development and testing of hypotheses. Most formal hypotheses connect concepts by specifying the expected relationships between propositions . When a set of hypotheses are grouped together, they become a type of conceptual framework . When a conceptual framework is complex and incorporates causality or explanation, it

340-402: A theory itself. Normally, scientific hypotheses have the form of a mathematical model . Sometimes, but not always, one can also formulate them as existential statements , stating that some particular instance of the phenomenon under examination has some characteristic and causal explanations, which have the general form of universal statements , stating that every instance of the phenomenon has

374-450: A useful guide to address problems that are still in a formative phase. In recent years, philosophers of science have tried to integrate the various approaches to evaluating hypotheses, and the scientific method in general, to form a more complete system that integrates the individual concerns of each approach. Notably, Imre Lakatos and Paul Feyerabend , Karl Popper's colleague and student, respectively, have produced novel attempts at such

408-834: Is Alasfar mountain which is a place for migratory birds, but It has not been exploited yet as it is a good investment project. There is several spring in Al-mubarraz, such as ; Ain Al-harra which located in the centre of Al-mubarraz, Ain Um saba'a in In the north of Al-Mubarraz near Al-Qurain village, Ain Al-hwerrat also in the north of it, in the centre of Al-mutairfy village, Ain Al-jawharia in Al-battalya village and Ain Bahela both in

442-566: Is a hypothesis that is provisionally accepted as a basis for further research in the hope that a tenable theory will be produced, even if the hypothesis ultimately fails. Like all hypotheses, a working hypothesis is constructed as a statement of expectations, which can be linked to the exploratory research purpose in empirical investigation. Working hypotheses are often used as a conceptual framework in qualitative research. The provisional nature of working hypotheses makes them useful as an organizing device in applied research. Here they act like

476-526: Is an ancient homes but it is deserted and close to falling because it's not receiving the required attention. In addition, there is Najm spring "Ain Najm" in Al-mubarraz, it's one of the popular in Al-ahsa and i's a destination for some families at night to spend good time there. Al-mubarraz has some stunning places like the famous mountains; Al-shu'ba mountain, Al-qara mountain and Al-arba'a mountain, also there

510-425: Is for Aramco, Al-qadesia, Al-khars, Al-muhammadia, Al-samer and Al-manqoor . Hypotheses A hypothesis ( pl. : hypotheses ) is a proposed explanation for a phenomenon . For a hypothesis to be a scientific hypothesis , the scientific method requires that one can test it. Scientists generally base scientific hypotheses on previous observations that cannot satisfactorily be explained with

544-457: Is generally referred to as a theory. According to noted philosopher of science Carl Gustav Hempel , Hempel provides a useful metaphor that describes the relationship between a conceptual framework and the framework as it is observed and perhaps tested (interpreted framework). "The whole system floats, as it were, above the plane of observation and is anchored to it by rules of interpretation. These might be viewed as strings which are not part of

578-400: Is proposed to subject to an extended course of such investigation, with the hope that, even should the hypothesis thus be overthrown, such research may lead to a tenable theory. Hypothesis (drama) In its ancient usage, a hypothesis is a summary of the plot of a classical drama . These hypotheses were often copied as a preface to the text of

612-423: The antecedent of a proposition ; thus in the proposition "If P , then Q ", P denotes the hypothesis (or antecedent); Q can be called a consequent . P is the assumption in a (possibly counterfactual ) What If question. The adjective hypothetical , meaning "having the nature of a hypothesis", or "being assumed to exist as an immediate consequence of a hypothesis", can refer to any of these meanings of

646-406: The alternative hypothesis. The alternative hypothesis, as the name suggests, is the alternative to the null hypothesis: it states that there is some kind of relation. The alternative hypothesis may take several forms, depending on the nature of the hypothesized relation; in particular, it can be two-sided (for example: there is some effect, in a yet unknown direction) or one-sided (the direction of

680-421: The available scientific theories. Even though the words "hypothesis" and " theory " are often used interchangeably, a scientific hypothesis is not the same as a scientific theory . A working hypothesis is a provisionally accepted hypothesis proposed for further research in a process beginning with an educated guess or thought. A different meaning of the term hypothesis is used in formal logic , to denote

714-426: The criterion of falsifiability or supplemented it with other criteria, such as verifiability (e.g., verificationism ) or coherence (e.g., confirmation holism ). The scientific method involves experimentation to test the ability of some hypothesis to adequately answer the question under investigation. In contrast, unfettered observation is not as likely to raise unexplained issues or open questions in science, as would

748-441: The data to be tested are already known, the test is invalid. The above procedure is actually dependent on the number of the participants (units or sample size ) that are included in the study. For instance, to avoid having the sample size be too small to reject a null hypothesis, it is recommended that one specify a sufficient sample size from the beginning. It is advisable to define a small, medium and large effect size for each of

782-595: The east of Al-mubarraz, finally Ain Um Najm in the centre of Al-mubarraz, close to Abu ghanema mountain and it's contain sulfure water which known for treatment, so in the past, many people got to for that, but unfortunately, now it's close, generally it's considered as one of the most important places in the city . Ain Alsouig in Alshroufia neighborhood is the oldest commercial spring in the area but it ceased to exist

816-414: The existence of a relation may be assumed. Otherwise, any observed effect may be due to pure chance. In statistical hypothesis testing, two hypotheses are compared. These are called the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis . The null hypothesis is the hypothesis that states that there is no relation between the phenomena whose relation is under investigation, or at least not of the form given by

850-417: The formulation of a crucial experiment to test the hypothesis. A thought experiment might also be used to test the hypothesis. In framing a hypothesis, the investigator must not currently know the outcome of a test or that it remains reasonably under continuing investigation. Only in such cases does the experiment, test or study potentially increase the probability of showing the truth of a hypothesis. If

884-470: The hypothesized relation, positive or negative, is fixed in advance). Conventional significance levels for testing hypotheses (acceptable probabilities of wrongly rejecting a true null hypothesis) are .10, .05, and .01. The significance level for deciding whether the null hypothesis is rejected and the alternative hypothesis is accepted must be determined in advance, before the observations are collected or inspected. If these criteria are determined later, when

918-431: The intended interpretation usually guides the construction of the theoretician". It is, however, "possible and indeed desirable, for the purposes of logical clarification, to separate the two steps conceptually". When a possible correlation or similar relation between phenomena is investigated, such as whether a proposed remedy is effective in treating a disease, the hypothesis that a relation exists cannot be examined

952-425: The network but link certain points of the latter with specific places in the plane of observation. By virtue of those interpretative connections, the network can function as a scientific theory." Hypotheses with concepts anchored in the plane of observation are ready to be tested. In "actual scientific practice the process of framing a theoretical structure and of interpreting it are not always sharply separated, since

986-440: The outcome of an experiment in a laboratory setting or the observation of a phenomenon in nature . The prediction may also invoke statistics and only talk about probabilities. Karl Popper , following others, has argued that a hypothesis must be falsifiable , and that one cannot regard a proposition or theory as scientific if it does not admit the possibility of being shown to be false. Other philosophers of science have rejected

1054-410: The researcher already knows the outcome, it counts as a "consequence" — and the researcher should have already considered this while formulating the hypothesis. If one cannot assess the predictions by observation or by experience , the hypothesis needs to be tested by others providing observations. For example, a new technology or theory might make the necessary experiments feasible. A trial solution to

1088-406: The same way one might examine a proposed new law of nature. In such an investigation, if the tested remedy shows no effect in a few cases, these do not necessarily falsify the hypothesis. Instead, statistical tests are used to determine how likely it is that the overall effect would be observed if the hypothesized relation does not exist. If that likelihood is sufficiently small (e.g., less than 1%),

1122-459: The surviving Athenian tragedies in Medieval manuscripts. They also indicated whether any other tragic poets had dramatised the story, gave its setting , identified the chorus and the character who delivered the prologue , and indicated the date of its first production and the titles of the poet's other plays performed that year, as well as the poet's rivals in the dramatic competition and

1156-428: The term "hypothesis". In its ancient usage, hypothesis referred to a summary of the plot of a classical drama . The English word hypothesis comes from the ancient Greek word ὑπόθεσις hypothesis whose literal or etymological sense is "putting or placing under" and hence in extended use has many other meanings including "supposition". In Plato 's Meno (86e–87b), Socrates dissects virtue with
