Theories of Independent Intelligences as a Lakatosian Research Program
2022
AbstractTheories of different and independent types of intelligence constitute a Lakatosian research program, as they all claim that human intelligence has a multidimensional structure, consisting of independent cognitive abilities, and that human intelligence is not characterized by any general ability that is of greater practical importance, or that has greater predictive validity, than other, more specialized cognitive abilities. This paper argues that the independent intelligences research program is degenerating, since it has not led to novel, empirically corroborated predictions. However, despite its flaws, the program provides an illustrative example of some of the philosophical prob…
Public deliberation as separate or embedded: deweyan democracy and its relation to political liberalism
2007
This paper explores two different strategies that may be useful to give substance to Deweyan democracy’s claim that in order for democratic associations to develop into communities, citizens need to learn how to conduct inquiry in a social setting. The two strategies reflect a principal division among views of public deliberation. The first strategy, the separation strategy, closely resembles Rawls’ political liberalism by advocating the development of a separate sphere of public deliberation, guided by factual and normative assumptions that we need not accept anywhere outside that sphere. Comprehensive doctrines are to be held outside of public deliberation, a move which makes possible a r…
Evaluation of the iridocorneal angle with accommodation using optical coherence tomography
2017
The changes in the iridocorneal angle structure during accommodation are assessed by means of anterior segment optical coherence tomography. Thirteen right eyes were included in the study. The device used for the measurement was the Visante® omni system. The stimuli were set up at different vergences (0.0 D, -1.5 D, and -3.0 D). The angle opening distance 500 and 750, the trabecular iris space area 500 and 750, and the scleral spur angle parameters were assessed at the nasal and temporal regions. The results in the iridotrabecular angle comparing the three accommodative states of the eye did not yield any statistically significant difference at nasal or temporal angle sections. In light of …
Search for composite and exotic fermions at LEP 2
1999
A search for unstable heavy fermions with the DELPHI detector at LEP is reported. Sequential and non-canonical leptons, as well as excited leptons and quarks, are considered. The data analysed correspond to an integrated luminosity of about 48~pb$^{-1}$ at an $e^+e^-$ centre-of-mass energy of 183~GeV and about 20~pb$^{-1}$ equally shared between the centre-of-mass energies of 172~GeV and 161~GeV. The search for pair-produced new leptons establishes 95\% confidence level mass limits in the region between 70~GeV/$c^2$ and 90~GeV/$c^2$, depending on the channel. The search for singly produced excited leptons and quarks establishes upper limits on the ratio of the coupling of the excited fermio…

Dépérissements du 161-49C _ Influence de l'alimentation potassique et azotée
2020
Le 161-49C (croisement Vitis berlandieri x Vitis riparia) est un porte-greffe jugé « qualitatif » qui a été largement utilisé pour les plantations et les complantations. Cependant, depuis une dizaine d’années, hormis sur le vignoble charentais, des problèmes de dépérissements graves et inexpliqués sont signalés, notamment en Bourgogne.Au vu de l’enjeu économique au sein du vignoble Bourguignon, le Bureau Interprofessionnel des Vins de Bourgogne (BIVB) cofinance un projet de recherche sur ce sujet : c’est le projet Aptitude. Ce projet vise à caractériser l’existence de possibles corrélations entre la nature physico-chimique des sols et l’intensité des dépérissements. Une attention particuliè…
Timing and patterns of the ENSO signal in Africa over the last 30 years: insights from normalized difference vegetation index data.
2014
Abstract A more complete picture of the timing and patterns of the ENSO signal during the seasonal cycle for the whole of Africa over the three last decades is provided using the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI). Indeed, NDVI has a higher spatial resolution and is more frequently updated than in situ climate databases, and highlights the impact of ENSO on vegetation dynamics as a combined result of ENSO on rainfall, solar radiation, and temperature. The month-by-month NDVI–Niño-3.4 correlation patterns evolve as follows. From July to September, negative correlations are observed over the Sahel, the Gulf of Guinea coast, and regions from the northern Democratic Republic of Congo…
Det såkalte selvbedraget : En fenomenologisk og analytisk kritikk av forestillingen om å bli bedratt av seg selv
2019
Masteroppgave religion REL500 - Universitetet i Agder 2019 Understanding self-deception, the way this term is still applied, has prompted both philosophers, psychologists and others in finding solutions to the dilemma by suggesting theories as to the construction of and motivation behind the phenomenon. Some of these theories compromise the core issue - that p and ~p cannot be true at the same time. Other theories work around the dilemma by offering rather dubious assumptions like boundaries between parts of the mind.My suggestion is a rather clear-cut definition by which self-deception is congruent with Moor's paradox. The self-deception then disappears because the contradiction is cast as…
Rois et spectres dans les pièces de Shakespeare
2019
International audience; Dans certaines de ses tragédies, les spectres royaux, convoqués par Shakespeare, reviennent. Nous nous pencherons sur le secret de famille transmis d'une génération à l'autre (dans "Hamlet") ou sur l’oracle rendu par les sorcières (dans "Macbeth"). Des lectures d’Arthur Gordon Craig, de Monique Banu-Borie, de Nicolas Abraham et Maria Torok viendront éclairer le statut du fantôme dans le théâtre de Shakespeare, entre rêve et réalité, présence et absence, incarnation et dépossession de soi.
