A meta‑scientific framework that applies fuzzy logic to the evaluation and practice of science itself. It rejects sharp dichotomies (scientific/unscientific, proven/unproven, objective/subjective) in favor of degrees: a theory can be “highly scientific” or “somewhat supported” rather than simply true or false. Fuzzy science theory accounts for the gradations of evidence, the vagueness of scientific concepts, and the continuous spectrum between rigorous science and pseudoscience. It is used in science communication, research evaluation, and philosophy of science to move beyond binary thinking.
