The scientificity of topic selection means that the topic selection should be guided by scientific ideas and based on facts.

Based on certain facts, the topic selection has a practical basis. Pavlov once said that facts are "the air of scientists", and theories without facts are fiction. Scientific research is the study of objectively existing facts and phenomena.

Guided by scientific thought, the topic selection has theoretical basis. The topic selection should not violate the scientific principles that have been tested by practice. Only in this way can it be scientific.

Here we need to pay attention to a problem: how to treat new problems that violate traditional concepts and common sense. Tradition and common sense are not necessarily scientific, but scientific laws may be hidden behind them and need to be updated with the development of science.

Therefore, researchers should dare to doubt and criticize, and dare to question these problems with verified scientific principles, which is also a manifestation of respecting science.
