Chess players' positions in intransitive (rock-paper-scissors) relations are considered. Namely, position $A$ of White is preferable (it should be chosen if choice possible) to $B$ Black, Black $C$ White, $D$ but White. Intransitivity winningness chess considered a consequence complexity the environment - contrast with simpler games transitive only. Perfect values impossible. Euclidian metric c...

This research is entitled “The Construction of English Verb “SEND”: A Cognitive Linguistic Study”. It based on cognitive linguistic, because with linguistic it could be seen how exactly the construction verb “send” and have that construction. The aims are; 1) to analyze “SEND” as a single verb; 2) "SEND" phrasal verb. data will collected by using observation method noting technique. Then, analy...

The first problem encountered in discussions about the three closely linked purposes of decision research is a lack of agreement about the meanings of the three terms descriptive, normative, and prescriptive. The goal of these comments is to illustrate my understanding of the terms and suggest areas for future prescriptive research. Normative decision research identifies logically compelling pr...

Theories of causal reasoning and learning often implicitly assume that the structural implications of causal models and empirical evidence are consistent. However, for probabilistic causal relations this may not be the case. Mismatches between structural implications and empirical evidence may lead to distortions of empirical evidence. Previous work has shown that people may use the generative ...

Ergativity refers to patterning in a language whereby the subject of a transitive clause behaves differently to the subject of an intransitive clause, which behaves like the object of a transitive clause. Ergativity can be manifested in morphology, lexicon, syntax, and discourse organisation. This article overviews what is known about ergativity in the world’s languages, with a particular focus...

The Marquis du Condorcet recognized 200 years ago that majority rule can produce intransitive group preferences if the domain of possible (transitive) individual preference orders is unrestricted. We present results on the cardinality and structure of those maximal sets of permutations for which majority rule produces transitive results (consistent sets). Consistent sets that contain a maximal ...
