Transitive reasoning distorts induction in causal chains

, 2016
A probabilistic causal chain A -> B -> C may intuitively appear to be transitive: If A probabilistically causes B, and B probabilistically causes C, A probabilistically causes C.

Network Meta‐Analysis of Static Cold Storage Versus Dynamic Organ Preservation for Liver Transplantation

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
Thirteen RCTs were included with a total of 1888 patients and assessed 5 interventions. Dynamic preservation of liver grafts was superior to SCS. HMP was superior to NMP for the primary outcomes. IFLT is a promising modality, but further clinical trials are required.

Relation-Theoretic Contraction via a Triplet of Auxiliary Functions and an Application to Ordinary Differential Equations

Journal of Function Spaces
In this manuscript, we establish some results on fixed points by using a triplet of auxiliary functions endowed with a locally J-transitive binary relation.

A Fuzzy-Equality-Based Index of T-Transitivity for Fuzzy Relations

Axioms
In this paper, we introduce a novel index of transitivity for fuzzy relations based on fuzzy equality. The proposed index evaluates the supremal uniform fuzzy-equality proximity between a given relation and the family of exactly transitive relations ...

Three shades of self‐regulation with unique complex dynamics, drivers and targets for intervention

British Journal of Educational Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Self‐regulated learning (SRL) is an active process involving multiple interacting components that evolve over time, exhibiting characteristics of complex systems such as non‐linearity, emergent behaviour, self‐organization, and hierarchy. These interactions unfold at different temporal levels, each warranting a dedicated lens to capture their ...

Transitive Closure of Interval-valued Relations [PDF]

, 2009
This paper introduces some concepts of intervalvalued fuzzy relations and some of their properties: reflexivity, symmetry, T-transitivity, composition and locally reflexivity.

A tutorial on Bayesian model averaging for exponential random graph models

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract The use of exponential random graph models (ERGMs) is becoming prevalent in psychology due to their ability to explain and predict the formation of edges between vertices in a network. Valid inference with ERGMs requires correctly specifying endogenous and exogenous effects as network statistics, guided by theory, to represent the network ...

An extension of the basic local independence model to multiple observed classifications

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract The basic local independence model (BLIM) is appropriate in situations where populations do not differ in the probabilities of the knowledge states and the probabilities of careless errors and lucky guesses of the items. In some situations, this is not the case. This work introduces the multiple observed classification local independence model
