In its broadest sense, confirmation involves the process of establishing the truth, accuracy, or validity of something. This article explores the concept of confirmation in different contexts, including science, law, and everyday use.
Confirmation in Science[edit | edit source]
In scientific contexts, confirmation refers to the process by which experimental results support or verify a hypothesis or theory.

Confirmation in science does not imply absolute certainty but strengthens the likelihood that a hypothesis is correct.
