An Analysis Of The Impact Of An Outlier On Correlation Coefficients Across Small Sample Data Where Rho Is Non-Zero, Maria A. Suchowski Apr 2001

An Analysis Of The Impact Of An Outlier On Correlation Coefficients Across Small Sample Data Where Rho Is Non-Zero, Maria A. Suchowski

Dissertations

This study addressed the problem o f the probable effectiveness o f the Pearson correlation coefficient (r) as an estimator o f moderate or strong population correlation (rho) when that estimate is based on small sample data which contains an outlier. In such a situation, three components contribute to the size o f a sample correlation coefficient, and so to the subsequent effectiveness o f the resulting estimation decision. These components are 1) rho, 2) sample size, and 3) outlier. Considered in this study were: two conditions o f rho (.5 and .8), three sample sizes (10, 30 and 50) …

Dialectics And The Dao: On Both, A And Non-A In Neutrosophy And Chinese Philosophy, Feng Liu, Florentin Smarandache Jan 2001

Dialectics And The Dao: On Both, A And Non-A In Neutrosophy And Chinese Philosophy, Feng Liu, Florentin Smarandache

Branch Mathematics and Statistics Faculty and Staff Publications

This paper introduces readers to a new approach to dialectical logic: neutrosophy. Specifically it proposes a multi-valued logic in which the statement “both A and Non-A,” historically rejected as logically incoherent, is treated as meaningful. This unity of opposites constitutes both the objective world and the subjective world –a view with deep roots in Buddhism and Daoism, including the I-Ching. This leads in turn to the presentation of a framework for the development of a contradiction oriented learning philosophy inspired by the Later Trigrams of King Wen in the I-Ching. We show that although A and Non-A are logically inconsistent, …


Review Of Neville: Portable Tradition, Stephen C. Angle Dec 2000

Review Of Neville: Portable Tradition, Stephen C. Angle

Stephen C. Angle

“Boston Confucianism” means two things, according to Robert Cummings Neville. The first is “the general project of bringing the Confucian tradition into play with the other great civilized traditions in the creation of a world civilization” [p. 1]. The second is “the work of the group of Confucian thinkers gathered in and around Boston under the leadership of Professor Tu Weiming” [p. 1]. Neville’s remarks about “tradition” and about Tu’s “leadership” make clear that he understands Confucianism to be something more than a typical philosophical doctrine. Consider also the following statement: “The long-run argument for the orthodoxy of Boston Confucianism …


Review Of Jensen: Manufacturing Confucianism, Stephen C. Angle Dec 2000

Review Of Jensen: Manufacturing Confucianism, Stephen C. Angle

Stephen C. Angle

Confucianisms, according to Lionel Jensen, are the results of a four-century long process
of pious manufacture: pious, because aimed at truth rather than manipulation; manufacture,
because the work has been done out of materials close to hand. These materials are the texts,
words, and symbols out of which traditions are invented and re-invented. Jensen’s book is
simultaneously a meditation on the ecumenical goals of “traditionary invention” and a close
study of the specific ways in which sixteenth- and twentieth-century communities have
negotiated between inherited meanings and current circumstances. Its case studies splendidly
exemplify its broader theoretical themes; I will look …
