What very small numbers mean.
This article presents a theoretical and experimental framework for assessing the biases associated with the interpretation of numbers. This framework consists of having participants convert between different representations of quantities. These representations should include both variations in numerical labels that symbolize quantities and variations in displays in which quantity is inherent. F...
متن کاملWhat exactly do numbers mean?
Number words are generally used to refer to the exact cardinal value of a set, but cognitive scientists disagree about their meanings. Although most psychological analyses presuppose that numbers have exact semantics (two means EXACTLY TWO), many linguistic accounts propose that numbers have lower-bounded semantics (AT LEAST TWO), and that speakers restrict their reference through a pragmatic i...
متن کاملPulse wave analysis: what do the numbers mean?
Applanation tonometry, a simple noninvasive technique for recording a high-fidelity waveform from an accessible pulse, has facilitated pulse wave analysis in large population studies. Most interest has focused on estimating an aortic or “central” waveform by the application of a filter or generalized transfer function applied to a radial waveform.1 Systolic pressure and pulse pressure differ be...
متن کاملNumbers whose positive divisors have small integral harmonic mean
A natural number n is said to be harmonic when the harmonic mean H(n) of its positive divisors is an integer. These were first introduced almost fifty years ago. In this paper, all harmonic numbers less than 2 × 109 are listed, along with some other useful tables, and all harmonic numbers n with H(n) ≤ 13 are determined.
متن کاملMean Ramsey-Turán numbers
A ρ-mean coloring of a graph is a coloring of the edges such that the average number of colors incident with each vertex is at most ρ. For a graph H and for ρ ≥ 1, the mean RamseyTurán number RT (n,H, ρ − mean) is the maximum number of edges a ρ-mean colored graph with n vertices can have under the condition it does not have a monochromatic copy of H . It is conjectured that RT (n,Km, 2 −mean) ...
