The frame of reference is a set of standards in relation to how judgements are made. It provides the beliefs, judgements, moral ethics, and values of the world. Also, the frame of reference acts as a rulebook for humanity and gives theories for new ideas. Because beliefs dictate behavior, the frame of reference is an important part of sustaining society. The frame of reference is used in everyday life and can be seen in all people because each individual has a different perspective. For example, a girl could be standing on a train thinking she is standing still, but a boy runs after her screaming "hold still!" thinking that she is moving because she is on a moving vehicle.

Day the Universe Changed: Changing Knowledge, Changing Reality


The frame of reference is a set of standards in relation to how judgements are made. It provides the beliefs, judgements, moral ethics, and values of the world. Also, the frame of reference acts as a rulebook for humanity and gives theories for new ideas. Because beliefs dictate behavior, the frame of reference is an important part of sustaining society. The frame of reference is used in everyday life and can be seen in all people because each individual has a different perspective. For example, a girl could be standing on a train thinking she is standing still, but a boy runs after her screaming "hold still!" thinking that she is moving because she is on a moving vehicle.
