dc.description.abstract | Traditionally, objectivity and neutrality along with testability and significance have been
important standards of science. However, science has changed profoundly from small-scale
experiments to large-scale problems of societal concern. Thus a revised set of scientific
standards and ideals of quality is necessary. Fisheries scientists are educated at universities
where traditional ideals are essential. In this paper I discuss objectivity and neutrality as
measures of quality and how fisheries scientist relate to these ideals. Scientific ideals are
challenged, and examples are discussed within fish stock assessment, whale counting and
fisheries data. | no_NO |
