Constant Conjunction
Constant conjunction refers to the observed pattern where two events regularly occur together, suggesting a relationship between them. For example, in everyday experience, whenever you turn on a key, the car starts. This consistent pairing leads us to think that one event (turning the key) causes the other (the car starting). The idea emphasizes that this repeated association forms the basis for our understanding of causal connections. However, it doesn't prove causation definitively, only that the two events tend to be linked through repeated experience.
