How can the use of hidden input fields in PHP forms improve the submission process and data validation?

Hidden input fields in PHP forms can improve the submission process and data validation by including additional data that is not visible to the user but can be used by the server-side script for validation or processing. This can help prevent tampering with form data by malicious users and ensure that the submitted data is accurate and complete. 

<form action="process_form.php" method="post">
  <input type="hidden" name="form_type" value="contact_form">
  <!-- Other form fields here -->
  <input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
