A scientific theory is a conceptual scheme that is strongly supported, has not yet been found incorrect, and is based on the results of many observations. This distinguishes it from descriptive research or experimental results, which do not necessarily involve a conceptual framework or the level of support of a theory. A scientific paradigm, while related, typically refers to a broader set of assumptions, methods, and values that shape a scientific field, rather than a specific theory.
