A Hypothesis-Testing Approach Toward Identifying Active Contrasts

Technometrics, 1996
The problem of identifying the active contrasts in an unreplicated fractional factorial design is approached from a hypothesis-testing point of view. The null hypothesis that all contrasts are inactive is first tested and, if rejected, the active contrasts causing rejection are identified and estimated.

THE CONTRASTIVE ANALYSIS HYPOTHESIS AND SPELLING ERRORS

Language Learning, 1970
The implications of three versions of the contrastive analysis hypothesis (CAH) are explored. The strong and weak forms are rejected in favor of a more moderate version which predicts the results of a spelling error analysis on the dictation section of the UCLA placement examination in English as a second language.

The Contrastive Analysis Hypothesis

TESOL Quarterly, 1970
The claim that the best language-teaching materials are based on a contrast of the two competing linguistic systems has long been a popular one in language teaching. It exists in strong and weak versions, the strong one arising from evidence from the availability of some kind of metatheory of contrastive analysis and the weak from evidence from ...

MARKEDNESS AND THE CONTRASTIVE ANALYSIS HYPOTHESIS

Language Learning, 1977
The purpose of this paper is to propose that the Contrastive Analysis Hypothesis (CAH) should be revised to incorporate a notion of degree of difficulty. This notion corresponds to typological markedness which can be determined independently of any particular language and independently of the facts concerning second language acquisition.

RELATIVE CLAUSES, THE ACCESSIBILITY HIERARCHY AND THE CONTRASTIVE ANALYSIS HYPOTHESIS

IRAL - International Review of Applied Linguistics in Language Teaching, 1995
Le but de cet article est d'evaluer trois propositions formulees a propos des relatives. Pour ce faire, un test a ete effectue aupres d'etudiants neerlandais en anglais venant d'assister a un cours sur les relatives. Les resultats montrent qu'il est plus difficile de relativiser des constituants dans une principale que dans une ...

Inconsistent Probability Estimates of a Hypothesis

Experimental Psychology, 2005
Abstract. This paper studies consistency in the judged probability of a target hypothesis in lists of mutually exclusive nonexhaustive hypotheses. Specifically, it controls the role played by the support of displayed competing hypotheses and the relatedness between the target hypothesis and its alternatives. Three experiments are reported.

Contrasting Multi-Source Temporal Knowledge Graphs for Biomedical Hypothesis Generation

IEEE/ACM Transactions on Computational Biology and Bioinformatics
Hypothesis Generation (HG) aims to expedite biomedical researches by generating novel hypotheses from existing scientific literature. Most existing studies focused on modeling static snapshots of the corpus, neglecting the temporal evolution of scientific terms.

Field-ion image contrast: the gas distribution hypothesis re-examined

Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics, 1978
A correction is reported to the gas concentration ratios calculated by Forbes some years ago, in connection with the gas distribution explanation of field-ion image contrast, and the explanation itself is re-examined in the light of subsequent experimental evidence.

The Westermarck Hypothesis and the Israeli Kibbutzim: Reconciling Contrasting Evidence

Archives of Sexual Behavior, 2015
The case of the communal education system in the Israeli kibbutzim is often considered to provide conclusive support for Westermarck's (1891) assertion regarding the existence of evolutionary inbreeding avoidance mechanisms in humans. However, recent studies that have gone back to the kibbutzim seem to provide contrasting evidence and reopen the ...
