Child Development: From Infancy to Adolescence, Second Edition

.....

Research often begins with observing a behavior we are interested in understanding. In trying to make sense of what we see, we draw on theories to formulate a testable prediction, called a hypothesis, about the nature and causes of the behavior. Before we can test our ideas, however, we need to decide how we will measure the behavior we want to study. If, for example, we are interested in studying aggression, we need to decide which observable behaviors will fit the way we conceptualize “aggression.” We can include physical aggression, such as hitting or biting, but we need to decide whether we also want to include verbal aggression, such as name-calling, or relational aggression, such as excluding someone from a group activity. Deciding what we will include and what we will exclude is called operationalizing a concept.

Hypothesis: A prediction, often based on theoretical ideas or observations, and tested by the scientific method.
