College Students' Understanding of Linear Functions: Slope is Slippery
A common obstacle for students in the transition from arithmetic to algebra is developing a conceptual understanding of equations representing functions. Two experiments manipulated isomorphic problems in terms of their solution requirements (computation vs. interpretation) and format to test for understanding of linear functions. Experiment 1 provided problems in a story context, and found tha...
متن کاملSlippery Slope of Triglycerides
For years, the scientific and medical communities have pondered the role of triglycerides in cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality risk. Although several studies have shown a relationship between elevated triglyceride levels and CVD, the degree to which triglycerides are independently associated and whether triglycerides directly cause CVD has been hotly debated. This is in contradistincti...
متن کاملThe slippery slope.
The achievement of adequate and prompt myocardial reperfusion in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the most important determinant of recovery of ventricular function at follow-up. This explains the great attention given to the so-called no-reflow phenomenon, which is associated with extensive myocardial damage and a high prevalence of future cardiac events after AMI. The no-reflow phenomenon...
متن کاملThe Basic Slippery Slope Argument
Although studies have yielded a detailed taxonomy of types of slippery slope arguments, they have failed to identify a basic argumentation scheme that applies to all. Therefore, there is no way of telling whether a given argument is a slippery slope argument or not. This paper solves the problem by providing a basic argumentation scheme. The scheme is shown to fit a clear and easily comprehensi...
متن کاملThe slippery slope of fear.
'Fear' is used scientifically in two ways, which causes confusion: it refers to conscious feelings and to behavioral and physiological responses. Restricting the use of 'fear' to denote feelings and using 'threat-induced defensive reactions' for the responses would help avoid misunderstandings about the brain mechanisms involved.
