Abstract
[Lewis examines the concept of credibility in scientific processes using examples of practising science during her PhD research. The scientific method provides scientists with a formalised approach to the generation of credible scientific knowledge. However, by drawing on personal experiences of scientific research, Lewis reveals a chasm between the subjective practice of science—so-called messy methods—and the sanitised version of methods in published works. Lewis explores contemporary social theory to described science as a nuanced, complex and messy process. Lewis proposes that such so-called mess, must be contained in published scientific works, including through the reporting of null results and the explicit description of scientific methods employed.]
