Ian Barbour in his book Issues in Science and Religion ( 1966 ), p. 133, cites Arthur Eddington's The Nature of the Physical World ( 1928 ) for a text that argues The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principles provides a scientific basis for " the defense of the idea of human freedom " and his Science and the Unseen World ( 1929 ) for support of philosophical idealism " the thesis that reality is basically mental ".

Uncertainty in the law is a serious problem, insofar as the published precedent of courts in a common law system is supposed to constitute " a clear guide for the conduct of individuals, to enable them to plan their affairs with assurance against untoward surprise.

Uncertainty is associated with each link of the causal chain of climate change.

Uncertainty about gender identity which causes anxiety or stress is diagnosed as sexual maturation disorder.

In that sense the behavior of light in this apparatus is deterministic, but there is no way to predict where in the resulting interference pattern any individual photon will make its contribution ( although, there may be ways to use weak measurement to acquire more information without violating the Uncertainty principle ).

* Uncertainty ( or risk ): The amount of money to be transferred in the future is uncertain.

Uncertainty is a term used in subtly different ways in a number of fields, including physics, philosophy, statistics, economics, finance, insurance, psychology, sociology, engineering, and information science.

# Uncertainty: The lack of certainty, A state of having limited knowledge where it is impossible to exactly describe the existing state, a future outcome, or more than one possible outcome.

Uncertainty in science, and science in general, is often interpreted much differently in the public sphere than in the scientific community.

< li > Uncertainty or error is used in science and engineering notation.

Uncertainty is involved in every measurement, such as measuring a distance, a temperature, etc., the degree depending upon the instrument or technique used to make the measurement.

< li > Uncertainty is designed into games, most notably in gambling, where chance is central to play .</ li >

< li > Uncertainty is often an important factor in economics.

The most commonly used procedure for calculating measurement uncertainty is described in the Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement ( often referred to as " the GUM ") published by ISO.

A derived work is for example the National Institute for Standards and Technology ( NIST ) publication NIST Technical Note 1297 " Guidelines for Evaluating and Expressing the Uncertainty of NIST Measurement Results " and the Eurachem / Citac publication " Quantifying Uncertainty in Analytical Measurement " ( available at the Eurachem homepage ).

In the Maha Samaya Sutta, the defeated antagonist of the Buddha, Mara also known as " Namuci " or the " Dark One " is described as an Asura whose army consisted of " Sensual passions, Discontent, Hunger and Thirst, Craving, Sloth and Drowsiness, Terror, Uncertainty, Hypocrisy and Stubbornness, Gains, Offerings, Fame and Status wrongly gained, and whoever would praise self and disparage others " ( Sn 3. 2 Padhana Sutta ).

The Uncertainty Principle is a mathematical principle that follows from the quantum mechanical definition of the operators of momentum and position ( namely, the lack of commutativity between them ) and that explains the behavior of the universe at atomic and subatomic scales.

The Uncertainty Principle was developed as an answer to the question: How does one measure the location of an electron around a nucleus if an electron is a wave?

The Uncertainty Principle states that both the position and the momentum cannot simultaneously be measured with complete precision.

* Uncertainty: These are precise concepts with uncertain values.

While temporarily at the University of Copenhagen, German physicist Werner Heisenberg formulated his famous Uncertainty principle, and, with Max Born and Pascual Jordan, accomplished the first complete and correct definition of quantum mechanics, through the invention of Matrix mechanics.

< li > Uncertainty has been a common theme in art, both as a thematic device ( see, for example, the indecision of Hamlet ), and as a quandary for the artist ( such as Martin Creed's difficulty with deciding what artworks to make ).</ li ></ ul >

The term Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics was often used interchangeably with and as a synonym for Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle by detractors ( such as Einstein and the physicist Alfred Landé ) who believed in determinism and saw the common features of the Bohr-Heisenberg theories as a threat.

* Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle: there is a limit on our ability to observe reality with precision.

Uncertainty as to whether the presence was there, or whether it may have been a stray animal spared from the Effect competes in his mind with speculations that the intruder could be a manifestation of the Effect.

* Comfortable with Uncertainty: 108 Teachings on Cultivating Fearlessness and Compassion.

The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle states that exact measurements of positions and momentum cannot be known, together, with more than a given precision.

Uncertainty over the immutability of Britain's historical identity, what historian Tim Murray has called the " threat of the past ", was manifested in the Victorian obsession with ancient times and archaeology.

Uncertainty and Sensitivity Analysis offer valid tools for characterizing the uncertainty associated with a model.

In Seventh European Conference on Symbolic and Quantitative Approaches to Reasoning with Uncertainty ( ECSQARU 2003 ), pages 452-463.

His two books for a lay audience, Reckoning with Risk: Learning to Live with Uncertainty ( 2002, published in the U. S. as Calculated Risks: How to Know When Numbers Deceive You ), and Gut Feelings: The Intelligence of the Unconscious ( 2007 ), have been translated into 18 languages.

Uncertainty of this type can be quantified with Bayesian analysis.

Uncertainty over, and debate about, the date of the church's construction have assumed nationalist undertones in Georgia and Armenia, with the prize being which nation can claim to have invented the " four-apsed church with four niches " form.

Uncertainty exists over its exact release date, with some accounts placing it before Spasim, the earliest first-person shooter with a known time of publication.

* Uncertainty surrounded the McLaren team, whose iconic driver Ayrton Senna was reluctant to re-sign for 1993 as Honda had withdrawn from the sport and the team were not expected to be competitive with customer Ford engines.

According to Mearsheimer, “ Uncertainty about the intentions of other states is unavoidable, which means that states can never be sure that other states do not have offensive intentions to go along with their offensive capabilities .” According to Mearsheimer, though achieving hegemony by any state is not likely in today ’ s international system, there is no such thing as a status quo and “ the world is condemned to perpetual great power competition .”

Particular situations where Uncertainty Reduction Theory and Homesickness can be viewed in atmospheres where the individual is relocated to a new environment with new peers for an abbreviated amount of time or permanently ( e. g. summer camps, boarding schools, military, and college campuses ).
