Gnoseological Criteria of Scientific Truth: An Analysis in the Context of Epistemology and Scientific Methodology

Abstract

This paper analyzes the epistemological criteria of “scientific truth” in the process of knowledge acquisition. In the context of classical verification, falsification, logical consistency, empirical grounding, and modern methodological approaches, it offers a comparative overview of scientific truth criteria. The result shows that scientific truth is not determined by a single criterion but by a complex system of criteria that ensure the validity and reliability of knowledge in contemporary scientific practice.
