" They also say that a good definition of " natural property " is problematic but that " it is only in criticism of naturalism, or in an attempt to distinguish between naturalistic and nonnaturalistic definist theories, that such a concept is needed.

However, at the current level of accuracy, these observations cannot distinguish between general relativity and other theories in which the equivalence principle is valid.

Some distinguish Marx's economic theories from his political philosophy, arguing that Marx's approach to understanding the economy is independent of his advocacy of revolutionary socialism or his belief in the inevitability of proletarian revolution.

Yet another way of categorizing meta-ethical theories is to distinguish between centralist and non-centralist theories.

Essentially all experimental evidence that can distinguish between the theories agrees with relativity theory to within experimental measuremental accuracy, but the differences from Newtonian mechanics are usually very small ( except where there are very strong gravity fields and very high speeds ).

Although the Wudang name falsely suggests these arts originated at the so-called Wudang Mountain, it is simply used to distinguish the skills, theories and applications of neijia (" internal arts ") from those of the Shaolin grouping, waijia (" hard " or " external ") martial art styles.

" Likewise, certain types of ethical theories, especially deontological ethics, sometimes distinguish between ' ethics ' and ' morals ': " Although the morality of people and their ethics amounts to the same thing, there is a usage that restricts morality to systems such as that of Kant, based on notions such as duty, obligation, and principles of conduct, reserving ethics for the more Aristotelian approach to practical reasoning, based on the notion of a virtue, and generally avoiding the separation of ' moral ' considerations from other practical considerations.

The most important development of the scientific method was the use of experiments to distinguish between competing scientific theories set within a generally empirical orientation, which began among Muslim scientists.

Some prominent social psychologists such as Anthony Greenwald thought it would be impossible to distinguish between the two theories.

Despite the difficulties, most theories of syntax and grammar distinguish on the one hand between arguments and adjuncts and on the other hand between optional arguments and adjuncts, and they grant a central position to these divisions in the overarching theory.

Wanniski has been credited with coining the term supply-side economics to distinguish it against the more dominant " demand-side " Keynesian and monetarist theories.

For instance, the physical concepts of matter and rays correspond, according to him, to the metaphysical concepts of the thing and of movement ; but whereas classical philosophy considered both as distinct, and the thing as ontologically real, modern science can not distinguish matter from rays: it is thus impossible to examine an immobile thing, which was precisely the conditions of knowledge according to classical theory of knowledge ( Becoming being impossible to be known, in accordance with Aristotle and Plato's theories of knowledge ).

This kind of electrodynamic theory is often called " direct interaction " to distinguish it from field theories where action at a distance is mediated by a localized field ( localized in the sense that its dynamics are determined by the nearby field parameters ).

Hermann also played back vowel recordings made with the Edison phonograph at different speeds to distinguish between Willis ' and Wheatstone's theories of vowel production.
