Goals as Reference Points

Cognitive Psychology, 1999
We argue that goals serve as reference points and alter outcomes in a manner consistent with the value function of Prospect Theory (Kahneman & Tversky, 1979; Tversky & Kahneman, 1992). We present new evidence that goals inherit the properties of the value function-not only a reference point, but also loss aversion and diminishing sensitivity.

The anterior point of reference

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1979
Three points in space determine the position of the maxillary cast in an articulator. The dentist is most frequently concerned with selecting the posterior two of the three reference points. In addition, the dentist will, either consciously or unknowingly, select the anterior of these points of reference.

Point of Reference

Leonardo, 1993
GEO-SONIC (1988) is an artwork for computer that explores sound, language and geographics. It is a collage of sounds, speech and calligraphy from around the world that leads the participant in associative global dreams and journeys. Sounds sampled by the artists are digitized and played back, juxtaposed with on-screen visual imagery (by use of a track ...

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2023
This paper examines how men and women differ in their attitudes towards taking risks. In many studies women have been found to be less willing to take risks than men, and this gender difference can have an impact on economic opportunities and outcomes for women.

A point of reference

Synthese, 1974
83. It should now be apparent that the familiar problems of reference and modality can be satisfactorily resolved without either abandoning substitutivity of identity in modal contexts or invoking an intensional ontology. It might be argued, however, that the suggested resolution avoids invoking an intensional ontology only because the modal predicates,

Declassification with Explicit Reference Points

2009
Noninterference requires that public outputs of a program must be completely independent from secrets. While this ensures that secrets cannot be leaked, it is too restrictive for many applications. For instance, the output of a knowledge-based authentication mechanism needs to reveal whether an input matches the secret password. The research problem is

Anatomical Reference Points – Indispensable Aids

1. The basis of a precise and uncomplicated osteotomy in the maxilla and midface region is a controlled and systematic approach. Cornerstones of the orientation are topographical-anatomical points/landmarks, which should be surgically identified in every case and at all times in order to be able to constantly have orientation for the surgical process 2.

SAT Solving with Reference Points

2010
Many state-of-the-art SAT solvers use the VSIDS heuristic to make branching decisions based on the activity of variables or literals. In combination with rapid restarts and phase saving this yields a powerful decision heuristic in practice. However, there are approaches that motivate more in-depth reasoning to guide the search of the SAT solver.
