Daubert, unlike Frye, does not require proof that the scientific method itself has general acceptance. Rather, it requires "reliability," which may be proved by considering several factors:
- Whether a method consists of a testable hypothesis.
- Whether the method has been subjected to peer review.
- The known or potential rate of error.
- The existence and maintenance of standards controlling the technique's operation.
