Paradigm (experimental)

An experimental paradigm, in the behavioural sciences (e.g. psychology, biology, neurosciences), is an experimental setup (i.e. a way to conduct a certain type of experiment) that is defined by certain fine-tuned standards and often has a theoretical background. A paradigm in this technical sense, however, is not a way of thinking as it is in the epistemological meaning.
