A method definition can be viewed as a logical assertion.

On the distribution of an assertion

Proceedings of the first ACM SIGACT-SIGOPS symposium on Principles of distributed computing - PODC '82, 1982
Given an n-nodes network and an assertion G expressing its correctness, it is shown that G can be decomposed into collection of n local assertions and n.(n-1) “communication” assertions. The special case of a 2-nodes network is first examined, and it is shown how the notion of Galois connections in lattice theory is a basic tool for the assertion ...

Effects of assertive training on three dimensions of assertiveness

Behaviour Research and Therapy, 1977
Abstract The relative effectiveness of several components of an assertive training program in shaping assertive responses on three dimensions of assertiveness (refusal, investigatory, commendatory) was assessed. Thirty-two unassertive females were randomly assigned to one of four experimental groups: coaching plus behavior rehearsal plus modeling ...
