Peirce defines truth as follows: " Truth is that concordance of an abstract statement with the ideal limit towards which endless investigation would tend to bring scientific belief, which concordance the abstract statement may possess by virtue of the confession of its inaccuracy and one-sidedness, and this confession is an essential ingredient of truth.

They studied 289 pairs of identical twins ( monozygotic or from one fertilized egg ) and 495 pairs of fraternal twins ( dizygotic or from two fertilized eggs ) and found concordance rates for same-sex attraction of only 7. 7 % for male identical twins and 5. 3 % for females, a pattern which they say " does not suggest genetic influence independent of social context.

As well as the more scientific defensible method of compiling occurrences, he also invented a new method of presentation, which showed the surrounding sentence rather than just the verse reference, this provided the literary context and so made the concordance significantly easier to handle, as the reader did not have to constantly flip back to the Bible only to find the reference was an irrelevant match.

A concordance search produces an alphabetical list of all principal words that occur in a text with their immediate context.

For bipolar I, the ( probandwise ) concordance rates in modern studies have been consistently put at around 40 % in monozygotic twins ( same genes ), compared to 0 to 10 % in dizygotic twins.

A combination of bipolar I, II and cyclothymia produced concordance rates of 42 % vs 11 %, with a relatively lower ratio for bipolar II that likely reflects heterogeneity.

The relatively low concordance between dizygotic twins brought up together suggests that shared family environmental effects are limited, although the ability to detect them has been limited by small sample sizes.

In science and history, consilience ( also convergence of evidence or concordance of evidence ) refers to the principle that evidence from independent, unrelated sources can " converge " to strong conclusions.

What is simply an opinion formed in defiance of the laws of human probability, whether or not it is later confirmed, has become by September of the election year `` a firm conviction ''.

Section 7 is designed to arrest in its incipiency not only the substantial lessening of competition from the acquisition by one corporation of the whole or any part of the stock of a competing corporation, but also to arrest in their incipiency restraints or monopolies in a relevant market which, as a reasonable probability, appear at the time of suit likely to result from the acquisition by one corporation of all or any part of the stock of any other corporation.

We repeat, that the test of a violation of 7 is whether, at the time of suit, there is a reasonable probability that the acquisition is likely to result in the condemned restraints.

Therefore, if the target can significantly change its location in something less than 30 minutes, the probability of having destroyed it is drastically lowered.

If the target can change its position significantly during the 30 minutes the missile is in the air on its way, the probability of the missile destroying the target is drastically reduced.

There is a well-known relationship between probability and entropy which states that Af, where **zq is the probability that state ( i.e., volume for an ideal gas ) could be reached by chance alone.

We devote a chapter to the binomial distribution not only because it is a mathematical model for an enormous variety of real life phenomena, but also because it has important properties that recur in many other probability models.

When three dice are tossed repeatedly, what is the probability that the number of aces is 0 ( or 1, or 2, or 3 )??

The major question in this chapter is: What is the probability of exactly X successes in N trials??

Considering only these Fridays, what is the probability that the coach had drivers all 3 times??

Thus in the three-dice example Af, Af, and the independence assumption imply that the probability that the three dice fall ace, not-ace, ace in that order is Af.

When each number of successes X is paired with its probability of occurrence Af, the set of pairs Af, is a probability function called a binomial distribution.

In this case the stage R operating with conditions Af transforms the state of the stream from Af to Af, but only the probability distribution of Af is known.
