Entity realism is a philosophical position associated with the philosophy of science, particularly in discussions about the nature of scientific knowledge and the interpretation of scientific theories. It is the view that scientific entities, such as unobservable entities posited by scientific theories (like electrons, genes, or black holes), are real and can be said to exist even if they are not directly observable.
