Buller dedicates several chapters of his book on evolutionary psychology to an examination of hypothesis testing and many of his criticisms center around the introduction of alternate hypotheses that do as good a job, or a better job, of accounting for the data.
The existence of a clade comprising "core Macrolepidoptera" plus Pyraloidea, which we predict that future work will confirm, is likely to prompt re-examination of hypotheses about the evolution of the thoracic or abdominal ultrasound-detecting "ears" that characterize the superfamilies Noctuoidea, Geometroidea, Drepanoidea and Pyraloidea.
It is important to quantitatively examine the innovation implementation framework as it will allow for a more precise examination of proposed hypotheses as well as will allow researchers to compare results across settings, samples, and innovations.
The availability of DNA will allow for the examination of genetic hypotheses.
Information available for the present study did not allow examination of these hypotheses.
Based on the likelihood ratio test, we chose the best model for further examination of study hypotheses.
Examination of specific hypotheses may be fruitful where fewer NTD cases are available, particularly if combined with stratified sample sets in which cases are sub-divided on the basis of phenotype.
Prior to examination of these hypotheses, however, we first confirmed if the overall GxTDEE and/or GxDEE interaction models provided a better fit to the data than the standard so-called polygenic model.
The development of a standard reference series of embryological events in amniotes as presented here should enable future improvements and expansion of sampling and thus the examination of other hypotheses about phylogeny and patterns of the evolution of land vertebrate development.
To date there has been little empirical examination of this hypothesis.
