ABSTRACT
The aim of this study is to introduce the concept of skeptical thinking to evaluate a claim using the six component (Falsifiability, Logic, Comprehensiveness, Honesty, Replicability, and Sufficiency) FiLCHeRS method. These six rules were used to assess whether claims should be accepted or rejected. As this is an introductory study, there are no concrete results to report, although the conclusion is that the method of skeptical thinking using the FiLCHeRS method is a suitable and logical approach to evaluate a claim.
