Resumo: Newton da Costa and Steven French have argued that the concept of partial truth plays an important role in our understanding of significant aspects of scientific practice: from the status of scientific theories through the understanding of inconsistency in science to the nature of induction (see da Costa and French 2003). In this paper, I use the concept of partial truth and the associated framework of partial structures to offer a formulation of the concept of visual evidence, and I examine some of the roles that this notion plays in scientific activity.

Nesse artigo, emprego o conceito de verdade parcial e a abordagem baseada em estruturas parciais para apresentar uma formulação do conceito de evidência visual. e examino algumas funções que essa noção desempenha na atividade científica.Federal University of Santa Catarina – UFSC2011-05-24info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/principia/article/view/1808-1711.2011v15n2p24910.5007/1808-1711.2011v15n2p249Principia: an international journal of epistemology; Vol. 15 No. 2 (2011); 249Principia: an international journal of epistemology; Vol. 15 Núm. 2 (2011); 249Principia: an international journal of epistemology; v. 15 n. 2 (2011); 2491808-17111414-4247reponame:Principia (Florianópolis.
