Question

James claims that he can read minds, but he refuses to tell anyone what he has learned so there is no way to test whether his claim is true or false. Which of the six principles of scientific thinking best describes this situation?

Answer 1

Extra Ordinary Claims

Step-by-step explanation:

The six principles of scientific thinking are listed below:

1. Extraordinary Claims
2. Falsifiability.
3. Occam's Razor
4. Replicability.
5. Ruling Out Rival Hypotheses.
6. Correlation vs. Causation.

James is using the principle of making claims that cannot be proven or those that need a lot of scientific proof that he is not willing to give. This will give absolutely no credibility to the facts that he is claiming.
